BIG Lottery - Open meeting
20 November 2007 10:45 - 4:00 in Central London

Have you ever wondered how we decide where funding should go? Well now
is your chance to find out.

You will join an audience of policy-shapers, pundits and the public.
We will cover a range of issues from the challenges of deciding what
to fund, to how we involve the public and how we work with other
funders. You will have the opportunity to put your questions direct to
our Chair.

Places to this free event are limited and allocated on a strictly
