Could loan finance be right for you?

At a time when organisations are facing cuts in funding, but demand for services is increasing, perhaps it’s time to look more closely at loan finance.

This event will bring together a number of loan providers under one roof, allowing you to discover the possibilities loans could hold for your organisation, along with speakers talking openly about the opportunities and risks of using loan finance.
 

Who should attend?
This event is for anyone from voluntary and community organisations who is interested in learning more about loans. It’s also open to advisers, both in the voluntary sector and public sector, who may be advising organisations on funding and finance.
