According to The Value of Small (a research paper into the specific contribution of small and medium-sized charities commissioned by the Lloyds Bank Foundation), it is the small and medium-size charities that have been most affected by the economic downturn, the disappearance of statutory grants and the fact that government contracts increasingly favour larger organisations. In this context, TFN’s commitment to small non-profits driving social change is even more crucial. 

This is why eligible organisations now have the opportunity to submit a short expression of interest online, with a summary of their aim and the social change they seek to achieve. This information will be circulated to members, so that they can get in touch directly if they want to know more about their work. See here for more details.
