The grants hub is designed to uncomplicate the process of finding and applying for grants, allowing users to quickly decide if their organisation or group is eligible to apply, the likelihood of success, and what effort is required versus the potential reward. Users have an option to register for free and indicate what type of funding they are looking for, enabling them to receive email alerts when relevant grants become available, making sure they never miss a funding opportunity. “The MidCoast grants hub is about empowering our community to secure funding that ultimately keeps our region thriving and the fact that it’s free to use is an added bonus,” Lyndie added.
