Jeff Smith MP is joining Postcode Lottery, to host a virtual funding workshop for local charities, volunteer organisations, and community groups in the area. This session will give local organisations in the constituency advice on how they can apply for funds to make a difference in their community.
The live Zoom event takes place on the 10th of June at 11am. To attend contact funding@postcodelottery.co.uk.
To date, players of Postcode Lottery have raised over £1.5 billion for good causes and are now raising over £20 million a month for thousands of charities, covering every constituency in the country.
Over £114,000 has been raised for local causes in Manchester Withington, making a real difference to many good local organisations.
Manchester Withington MP, Jeff Smith said:
“I am pleased to co-host this funding workshop with Postcode Lottery to provide local charities with the tools they need to access funding. I know there are many charities in my constituency that would greatly benefit from additional funding, and I encourage them to attend the workshop to learn more about the opportunities available to them.”
Head of Public Affairs at Postcode Lottery, Nick Cook said:
“The money raised by players of Postcode Lottery is already having a huge impact in communities across the country.
We want to do as much as we can to help local charities and good causes successfully apply, particularly at a time when many are losing out on essential funds.
Our free virtual workshop is a useful opportunity for smaller, local charities to find out about the funding available, get advice on applying and ask us any questions they may have.”
