Well you cannot keep a good project down and after the Manchester Volunteer Advice Partnership (MVAP) project ended in 2019 and an unsuccessful bid to the National Lottery Community Fund, we did what we usually do with MVAP and we went back to the drawing board, built on what was important to the people who volunteered for the project and we tried again.
We got through to the second round and then Covid-19 intervened and everything was on hold but in spring this year things moved again and we submitted a second round funding bid and success!

“I can’t put into words how grateful I am to have a Befriender. Befriending is incredibly helpful and I am so thankful I have this support. When I started, I didn’t believe what a difference it would make to my life.”
