Tailored Events

Tailored learning journeys enable rural enterprise practitioners to visit one another and learn from one another, ask the questions they want to ask, make new connections and build a strong network of independent support. You must have at least 4 people in your group - ideally including at least one board member. All costs are met by the Survive & Thrive programme, including the cost of travel.

  • Are you thinking of starting a project similar to one that is already operating successfully elsewhere?
  • Would you like to meet the team behind the project?
  • What happens behind the scenes?
  • How did they get started?
  • What are the best sources of help and support?

The package includes:

  • £300 day rate paid to hosts (to include a 4 hour visit + preparation time)
  • Travel bursaries to cover the cost of participants' travel

Application process: To discuss your requirements please call Jessie on 0117 314 4653. Application forms are available for download below and should be emailed to J.Wainwright@dta.org.uk at least 2 weeks in advance of a visit.
