Information workshops

We will be running a series of online and in person workshops and recommend anyone interested in applying for financial assistance come along as we will be able to introduce you to the new grant management system. There have also been quite a few changes to the eligible and ineligible criteria of some of the themes. Should you still be experiencing difficulty backing-up your information from the existing grant management system we will be offering support after the in-person workshops in Newry and Downpatrick, so if you wish to utilise this support please bring a laptop or tablet device with you to the session.
