Looking for funding?
Download the Funding Guide (PDF - 2 MB)The communities and businesses of Northumberland National Park already benefit from a significant amount of external funding each year. By implementing a successful approach to funding local people can be empowered to run trial projects, deliver services in targeted areas, address new agendas, and engage in partnership activities which would otherwise be restricted by a lack of core funds.
Northumberland National Park's Funding Guide is aimed at anyone who is:
- Involved in bidding for funding
- Involved in managing funded projects or activities
- Involved in managing budgets secured from external sources
The main purpose of the Funding Guide is to improve the overall approach of anyone seeking and utilising funding in and around Northumberland National Park. This can be achieved by ensuring that everyone involved in funding has access to examples of good practice and is aware of available sources of help, support and advice. The Funding Guide provides straight-forward advice on how to develop projects and funding bids, helping you to get the most out of funding opportunities and avoid some of the commonly experienced pitfalls.
