Our Steering Group funded a pilot project in 2023 which was the first project to ever be funded by the NLN. Funding a small piece of work helped the Steering Group consider their decision making processes and how they would monitor and evaluate projects in the future. Below is a 6 month update on this excellent project from Intandem.
In 2023 we awarded the following:
Intandem (more info at https://www.intandem.scot/) awarded £5,000 to develop leadership opportunities within their Invoice Group.

Members of the Steering Group are currently looking at how the NLN will fund other leadership opportunities and experiences moving forward.
