The North Yorkshire Forum for Voluntary Organisations (NYFVO) offers support to funding advisors and development officers working in LIOs throughout York and North Yorkshire by providing advice, training, networking, and the exchange of best practice opportunities. By working with LIOs' staff the Funding Advice Network Coordinator aims to facilitate the development of consistent, high quality funding advice that meets the needs of frontline voluntary and community organisations. If your post involves providing funding advice to voluntary and community groups or organisations, and you would like to join the Network please contact Ellen Reeves on 01347 825710 or email ellen.reeves@nyfvo.org.uk

All the local infrastructure organisations listed below are working together as the Yand NY VCS Infrastructure Consortium.
