Spirit of 2012 Inclusive Volunteering: Test and Learn fund
Created: 22/09/2021Spirit of 2012's Inclusive Volunteering: Test and Learn fund is now open for applications. Delivery organisations who wish to pilot more inclusive approaches to volunteering using a practical, test and learn approach are encouraged to apply.

Spirit will organise for the successful applicant to meet the researchers from the Evidence into Practice phase in order to hear first-hand the findings from their research and identify how their test and learn project may evolve as a result of this.
Who can apply?
The organisation is particularly interested to receive applications for projects delivered in partnership between disabled and non-disabled people-led organisations.
When to apply?
Applications close at 09:00 on 22 October 2021.
How to apply?
