Hi Experts online Hypothetically, would there ever be any intiatives or funding that is available to help support learners with special educational needs, please? Sometimes we need help with learners with particularly difficult situations and when there is more than one in a class it would be good to know about some extra assistance (I'm thinking of a learning assistant for special needs). Is this ever possible please? Thanks, East Dorset

Is there any potential funders that would fund core running costs of our company? We have a number of areas of expertise including young peoples accommodation, office room rental, conference room hire and a cyber cafe. Our company operates as a charity. However, we still need to try and fund the core running costs and/or salaries of certain members of staff. Is there anyone that will help us?

Can you suggest any funding streams? My position as Project Co-ordinator is funded until March 2009, this post was part funded by our local council, but this will disolve in April 2009 with a new single unitary authority.
