Below is a small selection of other funders. Please note that there are many other smaller funders out there.

London Funders is the membership organisation of funders and investors in London’s voluntary and community sector (VCS). Its mission is to strengthen and support funders to better meet the needs of Londoners.

LVSC brings London voluntary and community sector organisations together to learn and share best practice and to create a co-ordinated voice to influence policy makers. We provide policy briefings, up-to-date information on management and funding, advice and support for voluntary and community groups, topical e-bulletins and short courses for those working in the sector.

Voluntary Sector Forum (VSF) Opens in a new window is the independent network of all London Councils' commissioned VCS organisations and is a good source of information and advice on London Councils' policy and processes, a cohesive voice for commissioned groups and provides opportunities to come together to share good practice. It is also a good forum to promote your work and advertise services. For information contact Tim Brogden or telephone Tim Brogden on 020 3349 8937
