The Durham Community Action Share and Learn Network is a network of volunteer-led community organisations that deliver local services and run local community buildings. Regular meetings take place and focus on key topics of interest, including governance, funding and compliance. 

This virtual funding information session is for representatives of voluntary and community groups across County Durham.

Eastern Green Link 1 is a new electricity connection linking County Durham and East Lothian via the North Sea. As part of their commitment to leaving a positive legacy, their Local Community Fund provides grants to eligible not-for-profit organisations in postcode areas SR1, SR3, SR7, SR8, TS21, TS28, DH1, DH4, DH5 and DH6.

Funding is available for projects that support education and STEM, environment and green spaces, community spaces and energy efficiency, cost of living and employability, physical health and activity, and mental health and wellbeing, helping to deliver lasting benefits for local people and communities.

This session will provide information on their funding and how to apply, and there will also be an opportunity for you to ask questions. 

Attendance is free, although booking in advance is required to secure places.

As places are limited, we respectfully ask that you book no more than two places per organisation. 

The event will take place online, and joining instructions will be provided prior to the meeting.
