I thought it would be useful to sign-post you to funders that have call-outs at the moment as you might well have something you can apply for funding for with a charity client:
Taken from this website: https://www.charityexcellence.co.uk/ (Ellie Hale CAST pointed me to this)
Is a pdf listing funders that are releasing money mainly to local community groups and people in need:https://www.charityexcellence.co.uk/Content/UserGuide/COVID19%20Funder%20Toolkit%208.pdf
In particular:
-Princes Trust for young entrepreneurs in financial difficulty (started a business in the last 4 years and are 18-30) https://www.princes-trust.org.uk/about-the-trust/coronavirus-response/enterprise-relief-fund
- innovation funding: Competition overview - Business-led innovation in response to global disruption (de minimis) - Innovation Funding Service
- tech force fund focussed on elderly and vulnerable: https://techforce19.uk/
i’m no expert for any of those listed, but if you want a chat or have an idea and don’t know what to do about get in touch, and I’m sure there are people in this network who could help/support so let’s start talking
Hope this inspires. Keep well.
