Hi all - it's that Funding time of year for us and I just wondered if anyone knew of any funders that are currently offering small £1-5K grants for charities core funding requirements? We are an online Debt Advice charity and are seeing an increase in people who are making the brave decision to contact us and either need a DMP (Debt Management Plan), or DRO (Debt Relief Order) arranged, so we don't want to find ourselves in a position where funds are a problem next year. Debt Admin is a daytime job mostly so we have 2 people contracted for 7hrs each per week to keep on top of it. We want to help as many people as possible - since 2018, we have helped over 200, managed Debt of nearly £3M, and seen £150K written off...all I need is some ideas to add to my own so I have a suite of sites to look at..if you could comment here with actual sites that would be great, not 'you could always try' as I'm afraid I just don't have the time, sadly...

Thanks a lot and regards
