Voluntary organisations can discuss how to access grants and meet other local groups at a meeting this week.

The Waltham Forest Voluntary Sector Forum provides community groups with the chance to liaise with other organisations working in the borough and allows volunteers to meet with councillors to discuss funding and issues in their area.

The meeting, chaired by cabinet member for communities Cllr Liaquat Ali, takes place on Thursday from 7pm until 9pm at the town hall in Forest Road, Walthamstow.
