Course Content
This is an introductory level course
Community centres and Village Halls are under pressure. Many are looking to re-invent themselves. This course will look at the different sources of income that organisations can consider, how they can market their services and access grants and other funds.
Specifically:
- Why make an income generation plan - and what other planning supports this
- Diversifying income
- Finding capital funding; researching funding sources
- Community fundraising - engaging the community
- Reserves policies; "saving up" for big developments
- Managing it all
This course is suitable for Trustees, staff and volunteer involved with Village Halls or community-based venues.
