Tunbridge Wells Council has taken action to improve their support for voluntary organisation and businesses in the borough.
From this week charities and businesses within the Tunbridge Wells area will be able to search for funding opportunities for free. The council has joined with Grantfinder, producer of Grantnet - a national grant finding facility- to provide detailed information on financial support. The database which previously could only be viewed by paying a fee can now be accessed by all voluntary and business organisations within the borough.
Searching Grantnet will help those seeking grants and funding for projects, to find national, regional and local funders simply by entering their details. Once they have done so a password will be immediately sent to their e-mail, allowing access to the database.
Grantnet is continuously updated, providing information in a range of formats such as, short summaries, overviews and in lenghty and extensive detail to help organsations establish their elegibility at the outset.
