Events
3 IDEAS FOR
SPONSORSHIP OF
YOUR REGIONAL
EVENT
Holding regional events may require support in the
way of funding to help with the success of the event.
Sponsorship may be required to help with:
• Venue hire
• Catering
• Guest speakers
There are three ways to apply for funding. All of these
require good planning well in advance, to ensure funds
are secured and recognition can be included in relevant
promotional material. Using the annual plan will help to
map out your year of events.
NETWORK PARTNERS
We want to encourage Network Partners to be present
at events and support in content delivery or in other
ways that are suitable. This will provide increased profile
and demonstrate support in your region.
Planning is crucial:
• Build a relationship with all your Network Partner
contacts.
• Some provide guidelines on the timeframes they
need to provide sponsorship.
• Network Partner Funding should be applied for
through the Regional Group Funding Application
form, not by direct contact with our Network Partners.
