Negotiating the funding maze

Abstract

Mee Ling Ng of Outset Consultancy Service (OCS) offers some thoughts and tips on where to find funding. A life in the day will have a regular section on funding issues and would like to hear from readers who would like to share their funding and fundraising experiences.Since the publication of Working it Out (Pozner et al, 1996) which addressed the resource needs of project development, the funding landscape has changed. New funding opportunities are available, in addition to those mentioned in the funding chapter. This article sets out the resource issues which practitioners need to be aware of and address. It also summarises the key sources of funding for project development and delivery of educational, training and employment opportunities for people with mental health problems.
