Latest Access to Volunteering grants to help disabled people volunteer announced
29 March 2010
Supported by the Office for the Third Sector, Access to Volunteering Fund aims to increase the number of disabled volunteers by breaking down the barriers they currently face when wanting to volunteer. As the Access to Volunteering Fund is a pilot, it will be trialing new and innovative approaches to grant funding and are keen to look at different ways of supporting disabled volunteers. We are particularly interested in applications that lead to employment opportunities for volunteers, seek to use new technology or offer greater value for money and quality of service.
The next deadline for grant applications is 19th April.
For more information see: www.accesstovolunteering.org or call the helpline on: 03000 123 346.
