A NATIONAL charity is accepting applications from people in Bradford for a national programme of community leaders.

The Multiplier, run by The Cares Family, brings together a diverse group of changemakers from across the UK to take part in a nine-month journey designed to increase their confidence and capability in building socially connected communities.

The Multiplier 2023 will support 14 community leaders to develop their skills in fundraising, storytelling, coalition-building and more through specially designed workshops, peer support, mentoring and an unrestricted grant to support their work.

The Cares Family’s Founder, Alex Smith said: "We will support civic leaders bringing people together in communities and forging connections in disconnecting times. In return, we will support applicants with grants, nine learning workshops, mentoring and the connections and platforms to help them to meet their individual and collective goals."

Applications for the 2023 cohort of Multipliers will close at 11.59pm on February 5.

The organisation is looking for local community leaders who have a project and/or organisation that:

• Is at least six months old, and needs support to deepen and grow its impact

• Connects people across generations, backgrounds and/or experiences

• Has the potential to make a bigger systemic and cultural change in society.
