Transforming Local Infrastructure 

More than seventy partnerships of local support and development organisations across England have received grants to transform their services and provide high quality, joined up support to frontline charities.

These projects will also make it easier for organisations to forge better links with local businesses, develop stronger partnerships with local public sector bodies and for people to volunteer.  

Hull’s TLI project, the Difference Engine, is being led by NBF in a consortium with Humber Learning Consortium, the Humber Sports Partnership, Hull and East Riding Community Foundation, Goodwin Development Trust, CERT, the University of Hull and the Northern Refugee Centre

Other regional success stories are:

Humber and Wolds Rural Community Council, leading for  East Riding of Yorkshire

Voluntary Action - North East Lincolnshire, leading for North East Lincolnshire

Voluntary Action Sheffield, leading for Sheffield
