13th August
Join us for the official launch of Match My Project across the East Midlands!
We’re inviting our local community organisations operating in Nottinghamshire and/or Derbyshire to join Match My Project (MMP). MMP is a marketplace platform designed to match community organisations with suppliers who want to support local projects, whether through donations, volunteering, resources, or other contributions. It’s a simple, free way to get the support you need to make a bigger impact.
