COMMUNITY groups are invited to a free event to find out what funding there is available to help achieve their goals.

Hambleton District Council is running the Funding Fayre where groups can meet funders and gain advice on securing grants.

Staff from the Big Lottery, Children in Need, Comic Relief, Futurebuilders and the Charity Bank will be there.

It takes place at the Golden Lion Hotel, in Northallerton, on Tuesday, November 3, from 2pm to 5pm.
