Branch support and organising fund
Bids made by branches and committees will be considered by the Finance and Resources committee
Branch Support and Organising Fund (BSOF)
This Fund has been created as a result of the branch resources review motion passed at Conference and has been set at £3.45 million in 2022 to be shared between twelve Regions. Two percent of national income each year will be set aside.
Branches and regional bodies can bid using an on-line form for different types of support to grow the union and take on local organising challenges. The NEC has provided guidance on the types of bids allowed and all decisions will be made at the regional level by a committee of lay members.
If you are interested in applying to the BSOF please contact your regional organiser in the first instance to assist with drafting an application before making a formal submission using the online form.
