BROMSGROVE charities can find fresh funding opportunities at an event being held next month.

Town MP Sajid Javid has organised the event, where representatives from local charities will be able to meet the funding bodies looking to support the charitable and voluntary sector.

Mr Javid said: “I hope that the charities will have improved access to information about the best ways to apply for, and secure, funding, and get the information they need to ensure that the Bromsgrove community gets maximum benefit from their efforts.”

The event is being held at 10am on Friday, February 8, at the Spadesbourne Suite in Burcot Lane.

The event includes a talk on various aspects of funding, and an exhibition on the various funding organisations.

Anyone interested in attending is asked to book in advance by calling 01527 872135.
