During October 2025, I held a Funding Fair in Newtown, bringing together organisations from across Wales to showcase the funding opportunities they offer to community groups.
Over 61 organisations and more than 100 people attended throughout the morning.
For community groups and organisations that were unable to attend, I’ve put together an information sheet below with all the key details.
I’d encourages interested parties to make directly contact with the organisations listed below.
