Take part in the BIG chat
15 March 2010
It is a year since the BIG thinking consultation, which helped set out the Big Lottery Fund’s strategic framework for developing new funding programmes. BIG chat is part of the continuing discussion BIG are having with individuals and communities that will inform their work.
On 16 March 2010, 1pm to 3pm, the Chair of Big Lottery Fund, Sir Clive Booth, will be taking part in a live web chat.
Between now and 16 March you can send questions for Sir Clive to answer online. Questions will also be put to the chairs of the decision-making committees in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.
