The Building Change Trust in Northern Ireland has launched two new awards programmes,
Exploring Change and Deliver Change, to help the community and voluntary sector 
deal with changing times, including fundraising issues.

Both programmes are aimed at supporting and harnessing the innovation of the sector
as it grapples with the impact of the recession, increased competition, reduction
in funding and looming governance changes in Northern Ireland.

Exploring Change will make 60 awards of up to £20,000 for exploratory work within
the sector, whilst Deliver Change will make 20 awards of around £50,000 for work
to implement change.

The awards will not be traditional grants in that the Trust will require recipients
to spend significant time working with the Trust to share learning from their work
with it and the rest of the community and voluntary sector. Through this the Trust
hopes to identify projects which demonstrate to the rest of the sector how change
can take place and contribute to the ongoing development of the sector.
