BFBS Big Salute Open for Grant ApplicationsThe BFBS Big Salute fundraising campaign is inviting forces charities to apply for project-based grants.
Nicky Ness, Director of Forces Broadcasting and Entertainment, said: “We are keen to hear from armed forces charities who find it a challenge to secure funds for specific projects.
“We offer grants of up to £10k and have seen how Big Salute funds can make a huge difference to all areas of the forces community, from cadets to serving personnel, veterans and their families.”
