Building on this, we want to share our organisational development support through our new Organisational Development Support Programme with charities we cannot fund. This will include access to a full range of tailored support offers alongside the guidance of our regional managers. It could include working with a specialist consultant, a mentor or a skilled volunteer and/or participating in peer networks, training and events. Through this programme we will work with charities to identify and prioritise their development goals, building on what they are already great at and supporting them to respond to and overcome challenges. This year we’ll be supporting up to 60 charities across England and Wales that work with refugees and asylum seekers through our new Organisational Development Support Programme and more information and details of how to apply can be found here on our website. This is available to charities with an annual income between £25k and £500k so that we can focus our support on charities that often cannot easily access organisational development support. This programme does not come with a cash grant but all the development support provided is completely free to the charities receiving it.
