About this Event
Join us for the Renfrewshire Funding Fayre on Thursday 28 January 2027 at The Wynd Centre in Paisley. The event runs from 10am to 1pm.
This is a drop-in event, but please register so we can estimate numbers and share any relevant information in advance.
The Fayre is a joint effort between Engage Renfrewshire and the Invest in Renfrewshire Communities Team. It is designed to help local charities, voluntary groups, social enterprises and community organisations explore current funding opportunities and build relationships with local and national funders.
Throughout the morning you can visit information stalls, speak directly with funders and take part in short breakout sessions where funders will talk about their programmes, explain what they look for and answer questions. It is a relaxed and friendly space, and a good chance to gather practical advice for future applications.
What will you gain from attending?
• Direct conversations with funders about current opportunities
• A better understanding of eligibility, deadlines and priorities
• Useful contacts to support future projects
• Insights from short breakout sessions led by funders
• A chance to meet other local groups
