With less than ONE MONTH until Falkirk Funders Fayre 2024, we’re talking about why you should book your FREE place in advance.
The 10th Falkirk Funders Fayre takes place on Tuesday 19th March at the Bowhouse Community Centre, 130 Bowhouse Road, Grangemouth, FK3 0EU, from 10am, and open to all local third sector groups and organisations.
While drop-in is available on the day, we would encourage people to book their place in advance. But why is that?
Why Book in Advance?
- Avoid the queues: Falkirk Funders Fayre can be a very busy event, and booking in advance means less time at reception.
- Quicker access: our team will be there at reception on the day, and can help you through the sign-in quickly and smoothly.
- See the lunchtime presentation: each year, one of our funders gives a dedicated presentation on their grant programmes and support. This year, the Utility Aid will be speaking about how they help the third sector keep energy costs down, reclaim overcharges, manage administration, and advise on all energy-related matters – and places go quickly!
- Refreshments: letting us know you’re coming helps us make sure the pop-up café is fully stocked with tea, coffee and other treats.
- More time with funders: most importantly, thanks to a quicker sign-in, you can spend more time speaking with our funders about your group, project, or applications!
