Funding Information Advice and Guidance

You can get help with your specific funding questions, and advice and support with your funding applications and strategies from SYFAB's Funding Information Advice and Guidance (FIAG) Team. We have a team covering South Yorkshire, working with members of voluntary and community organisations to help you develop your knowledge, skills and confidence in fundraising.

In particular, SYFAB FIAG Workers can:

• Help you identify your funding needs
• Help you determine the most appropriate types of funding for your work
• Help you to work out costs and draw up a budget for fundraising, and put together funding plans and strategies
• Give you advice on your funding applications
• Help you to improve your fundraising skills and knowledge
• Refer you to other sources of help and advice.

We prioritise work with organisations who have difficulty fundraising. These include groups:

• With no paid workers
• In isolated urban or rural areas
• That are not part of existing networks or forums
• Whose aim is to combat disadvantage, and those working with particularly disadvantaged communities or people, including ethnic minorities, disabled people, women, unemployed people and young people.

Contact a member of the FIAG Team to discuss your fundraising.
