Charities ‘should have 25-year grant funding’
Third sector organisations should be given grants for up to 25 years to encourage long-term thinking, innovation and independence, according to the chief executive of the Wales Council for Voluntary Action. Graham Benfield will tell a WCVA conference in Llandudno tomorrow that three-year funding is not long-term funding. “It means one year to set up, one year to implement and one year to close down and search for more money,” he will say.
