We know that a lot of funders want to change their relationship with voluntary and community sector organisations led by and for Black and minority ethnic groups. An important first step is understanding where your funding is going at the moment, and to help funders analyse their portfolios a group of funders, led by Debbie Pippard at Barrow Cadbury, developed a tool to enable funders to understand their funding patterns. 

On behalf of West Midlands Funders Network and its National Funders’ sub-group, Debbie will be running a training session on use of the tool if enough funders are interested. If you would like to learn more about the tool by attending a one-hour session.
