Do you have an idea for your community and want to explore how to fund it?

Join Circular Fashion Incubator CIC for a practical two-day workshop designed to help you discover EU and UK funding opportunities and begin turning your ideas into fundable projects.

Led by Francesca Favia, the workshop takes place over two consecutive days, with three hours each day.

Day 1 – Finding the right opportunities
Explore current EU and UK funding opportunities, understand what funders are looking for, and identify which calls could be relevant to your ideas.

Day 2 – Developing your project idea
Work in groups to develop objectives, activities, potential partners and community involvement through practical exercises, discussion and feedback.

You don’t need to arrive with a fully developed project. Bring your community’s needs, your experience and your ideas, and leave with an initial project concept and clearer next steps.

📅 19–20 October 2026
⏰ 10:00am–1:00pm each day
📍 Media Centre, 21 Savile Mount, Chapeltown, Leeds, LS7 3HZ
🎟️ Registration required

This workshop is suitable for community organisations, CICs, charities, creatives, social enterprises and individuals developing community-focused projects.
