This is the website that Robert (NOT Bob) told Christine and me about. I think we're going to be visiting it quite a bit in the not-too-distant future!

Eckhart Tolle - spiritual teacher and author.

Championing Family Learning LSC publication....some useful bits for bid

Latest book from Freedom Writers - from the teachers' points of view. I also noticed 'Teach with your Heart' .....to be added to our wants lists!

Author of 'Changing the World from the Inside Out'. Check out his website - he's a remarkable person and his writing links in with everything we have been reading about giving, loving and serving.

This is the Community Foundation Network. Find your local one - they hold and distribute funds and awards eg Comic Relief and High Sheriff awards

Will - if you find anything for our FLF event, please put it in this topic

Yes, don't look quite as fresh and energised today though! But enjoying reading through what you've researched.

I especially enjoyed the Mosaic Report - as research for our FLF funding application.....and it's also an inspiration to CLP of how using data etc can be soooo effective in making your case...

> In September 2002, the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors adopted Arts for All: Los Angeles County Regional Blueprint for Arts Education, a strategic plan to restore arts education -- in dance, music, theatre, and the visual arts -- to the 1.7 million students in Los Angeles County's 81 school districts. The Arts for All Executive Committee, with more than 100 partners and managed by the Los Angeles County Arts Commission, leads this effort. The initiative, having completed its sixth year, has made great strides.

Business Link provides advice for businesses (including start ups). There is also often funding available.

Real-life stories requested by BBC RAW - especially from learners with low literacy skills

I've bookmarked Camel before, but funding was closed at that time. It has now re-opened for bidding ....very exciting and timely!

Don't know an output from an outcome? (Well, Will, we didn't in your kitchen in Tooting)......found this www via Henry Smith .....really useful for putting bids together....and, boy, are we all putting bids together!!

Not sure if we've already bookmarked this - but it's amazing, and very useful!

HMRC's guide to setting up in business and tax/NI etc.

GlaxoSmithKline IMPACT Awards - cash awards for charities working to improve people's health in the UK

For charities only - your supporters sign up to the scheme and earn cash rewards for your organisation. Will - please circulate to your charity chums.

Might be appropriate for CLP? Aimed at smaller orgs who don't have capacity to deal with full reporting requirements of larger ESF grants. Up to £12k available - next and final round beg October 2009.

This might be good for CLP.

Fab funding website that I've just discovered. Not only can you search for grants and contracts, there are lots of tips too.

Just came across this - haven't heard of them previously. Will, they are administering the hardship fund and I'm having a little dig to see if you have to hit all four areas or just one of them. I'll keep you posted.
