• Reviewing the Sustainable Funding model’s income spectrum and how legacies and trading fit alongside more common sources of funding.
• Top tips for running a Legacy campaign.
• Trading implications for charities and funding trading activity.
• Information about the Community Council of Devon’s Social Enterprise services and their free sustainability health-checks.
