Funding Fair 2025

Jump to list of previous sessions and recordings

Here at Aspire NN we organised a fantastic range of high quality in-person and online workshops which took place in February and March 2025.

Featuring tips from national and local funders or supporters, the events were free to attend. They were most suitable for anyone involved in or interested in setting up a charity, voluntary group, social enterprise or any other not-for-profit organisation in North Northamptonshire.

Delivered to you by Aspire NN – supporting the VCSE sector in North Northants – in collaboration with and on behalf of North Northants Council.
