Yesterday saw the first time that the Funding Applications: the good, the bad and the ugly, was held.
The session was well attended, and the participants really joined in with the spirit of the course.
The morning session looked at why applications fail, and the group looked at some real applications to see how they thought the information was relayed. The afternoon session then took the mornings learning and turned it on its head, with the PAVO Dragon's Den.
Groups had to prepare a pitch for a fund, and present this to our very own PAVO Dragon's - two of our trustees. Roy Norris, and Gloria Jones Powell, took on this role with relish, and the groups had a rigorous assessment of their projects, by both the PAVO Dragon's and those attending the course.
Feedback was excellent on the course, and we are looking to run it again - watch this space.
