Tim Wainwright's Narconomics. Looks like a brilliant read. I had another formative meeting last night and I think things are now moving forward with genuine purpose and direction. No need to fear @gtrmanchesterpolice (keep up the work you do) im not looking to start any illegal activity. I find it curious how often people doing illegal things tend to create the most ingenious and dynamic approaches to generating income. I also find it sad that it is often very difficult for a law abiding and responsible individual to recieve these sorts of benefits. ___________ Question: what gets you excited; What makes you want to bolt out of bed even when your dead tired after a long stress filled week? ___________ #economist #timwainwright #economics #economy #enterprise #enterprising #enterprisedev #enterprisedevelopment #innovation #innovationdev #innovationdevelopment #entrepreneurial #entrepreneur #motivated #motivate #motivation #motivational #inspire #inspired #inspiration ___________

Comic Relief and England Rugby - Try for Change Fund

In partnership with England Rugby, Comic Relief is launching its first funding initiative through the Try for Change fund on 6th February 2017.  

In 2016, Comic Relief and England Rugby joined forces to launch the Try for Change Fund. The fund will use rugby union and the rugby union community to deliver social change in England and across the world.  Bringing together rugby’s core values of teamwork, respect, enjoyment, discipline and sportsmanship it will work to tackle a number of social challenges around education attainment, social inclusion, unemployment, mental and physical wellbeing, personal development and community cohesion. Sport can play an important role in improving the lives of millions of people across the world, bringing people together to play, learn, improve their health and benefit from shared experiences. Try for Change works to promote, support and grow rugby as a tool for social good. It aims to help people reach their goals and fulfil their potential, as well as deliver long-term benefits to the wider community.

The first initiative launched under the Try for Change Fund is a small grants programme aimed at supporting smaller charities, community groups, and local community rugby clubs in England. Organisations can apply for between £2,500 and £10,000, for up to 12 months. We will be prioritising applications which target the most vulnerable and marginalised groups, for example young people who are NEET (Not in Education, Employment, or Training), local refugees, or young offenders.

If you are interested in learning more about the Try for Change Fund, England Rugby – in partnership with Comic Relief – are hosting a Seminar at Twickenham Stadium on Friday 17th February from 12pm until 2.30pm. For more information on the seminar please contact Tim Wainwright at timwainwright@rfu.com

  For more details and to apply for funding from the Try for Change Fund, please check back on the Comic Relief grants page from 6th February 2017.  We will be providing details of future funding initiatives in due course, including a programme of larger grants in England.
