The aim of the conference is to get funders and grant providers together with community woodland groups and other third sector representatives to discuss the future of funding in the current economic climate.

The programme is packed and will include:
Opening address from Eleanor Burnham AM (North Wales)

Presentation and workshops on funding from:

  • Sustainable Funding Cymru (Wales Council for Voluntary Action)
  • Wales Cooperative Centre
  • BIG Lottery Fund
  • Forestry Commission Wales
  • Cadwyn Clwyd
  • Denbighshire Voluntary Service Council
  • Keep Wales Tidy
  • Environment Wales
  • Focus on Forestry First

If you need funding to make your ideas and group fly then you can’t afford to miss this event.

The AGM part will be short but important as it provides an opportunity for members to help shape what LlyG does in the coming year – if there are issues you wish LlyG to raise with policy makers or events you’d like to see us provide then come to the AGM. We will shortly be sending out notices of the AGM Agenda to all members.

We are very pleased that Rodney Waterfield of the Woodland Skills Centre has agreed to host us on Saturday. This is a fantastic opportunity to learn more about the operation of a mixed enterprise based on woodland skills and products.
