We are currently taking steps to help civil society organisations access the tools and training they need to harness the generosity of the public. The Foundation for Social Improvement launched our subsidised fundraising training programme on 6 July this year. The training will equip staff at small charities with the skills needed to raise further donations from the public.</p> answering member constituency Chatham and Aylesford answering member printed Tracey Crouch question first answered 13/07/2017 13:08:03 answering member 3950 label Biography information for Dame Tracey Crouch
