Big Lottery Fund ‘Thinking’ Consultation

The Big Lottery Fund wants individuals and groups to take part in a ‘big thinking’ consultation and give their views on how its grant programmes (expected to be over £2 billion between 2009 and 2015) should be spent.

The Big Lottery Fund state that these views will guide how they award funds to the projects that help make the biggest impacts. The consultation site Big Thinking contains lots of features including online surveys, videos and games to help you form and give your opinions.

The ‘big think’ consultation ends on 27th February 2009.
