Access the Expert – Deadline
Have you applied for Access the Expert yet?
If not why not put in an application before the deadline of 31st May 2013. There are no costs to yourselves other than your time. Access the Expert utilises bursaries to pay a consultant to work with you for up to 4 days to develop business plans, carry out an evaluation of your service, develop a marketing plan, support IT development or many other projects. There are no strings to this, no hidden extras, just 4 days of an experts time. This has been made possible as part of the South Tees TLI bid to BIG lottery and the money is held by MVDA on behalf of the partnership. The application and assessment process has been kept as simple as possible to enable the money to be directed to the areas of most need. The only criteria is that the group has to be based either in Middlesbrough or Redcar & Cleveland and has to be constituted. For more information and to apply visit http://accesstheexpert.org.uk/
