VOLUNTARY and community groups in Darlington are being offered the chance to find out how to get a fair share of National Lottery money.
Fair Share is to hold an event in the town to tell people how they can apply for financial help for projects which meet Lottery criteria.
The Government initiative has named Darlington as one of 62 areas across the country which could receive up to £1.8m of funding.
The event, at the Dolphin Centre, is being hosted by Darlington Borough Council lottery officer Jill Thislethwaite. Representatives from the National Lottery's Community Fund and the County Durham Foundation will also be attending.
Groups which are looking for funding for projects are invited to attend to find out if they are eligible to apply.
The event will be held in the Dolphin Centre's Central Hall next Thursday, from 3pm to 5pm and 6pm to 8pm.
For further information contact Ms Thislethwaite on (01325) 388642.
