In January, we successfully launched the UKSPF Small Grants Programme, providing funding of up to £10,000 to community and voluntary groups based in, or providing services within the Erdington Constituency (wards of Castle Vale, Erdington, Gravely Hill, Kingstanding, Perry Common, Pype Hayes, Stockland Green.)

In addition to this important funding we are delighted to announce a series of events in partnership with Birmingham Community Matters, that have been created to provide advice & guidance to Erdington community and voluntary groups to support their capacity building activity.

The sessions will cover a range of subjects including:-

• Managing money for small voluntary groups
• Reporting your groups impact
• How to start a community group

These events are free to attend, simply click the links below for full details of each event and to register to attend.
