Do you have an initiative that could make a real difference to the local community but you need some support to get it up and running? Our Nurture Programme gives promising community ventures access to the structure, support and organisational backing they need to secure external funding and get proposals off the ground.
Rather than navigating the process alone, you’ll work alongside the Hub team as we help shape your idea into a workable plan, supporting you with your funding and grant applications, helping take care of the admin behind the scenes. It’s a one-off, hands-on partnership designed to test and strengthen your proposal.
Every Nurture Programme proposal is assessed to make sure it aligns with the Trust’s mission, values and objects, so you can be confident you’re building something that genuinely belongs at the heart of the community hub.
