In February we fairly racked up the miles around Scotland – taking in events in the Highlands and Western Isles as well as a good number closer to our home base in Glasgow. We spoke to loads of great projects and it looks like we’ll have the chance to keep that rolling over into March as we hit the road again this month!
Over the next few weeks we will be at funding events in Grangemouth, Edinburgh and Perth, as well as a couple of constituency drop-ins with elected members in Airdrie and Larkhall. We’ll also be up in Elgin for the local Third Sector Interface conference, and at conferences around Deafness and LEADER funding in Glasgow and Aviemore respectively.
All the events we are attending this month are mapped out and listed below, along with details of how to get involved. There are some details still to be confirmed, so check back soon if the info you need isn’t there yet.

Future Events
We won’t be out and about in April, as we are keeping our heads down during the restricted period around the Scottish elections. However, well be out again for a few events in mid-May, when we should be hitting East Renfrewshire, Moray and Glasgow.
In the meantime, make sure you follow us on Twitter @BIGScotland for the latest on all these events, and any others coming up.
