In need of a kind word

I'm very sorry to hear this ab, and have no idea what can be done other than what's already been mentioned. I really do understand how valuable these centres are.

Oh that's awful. I have a relative with mental health problems and the provision is woeful.

I hope you find a way to keep your centre open.

Will do all I can to keep it open , just such a shock this morning - and I am the fund raiser !

I well know the problems around funding! Its a nightmare and sourcing it can turn into a full time job. I don't know about where you are but is there any record anywhere of funds left for 'good works'. Sometimes these were left years ago and the sums fairly small but many a mickle maks a muckle. They're usually administered by trustees. Form filling and trying to fit funding criteria can be a nightmare.
Given your client group might your local NHS give you some funding? Very time consuming again but maybe worth a try? Local MP might help. Local newspapers? Good luck! Don't despair.

There is funding out there Annie if you can find it. I volunteer for a local community centre which specifically caters for groups such as yours and they manage to keep it going with a mixture of national grants and local businesses. Any help I can give, please let me know.

What a shame, Annie. You must be very upset.

Could you get sponsorship from any local businesses?
