The deadline for the first Community Partnership Initiative (CUPI) events
are fast approaching – so don’t miss out on the opportunity to meet
potential partners and access seed corn funding to support you to work
together.

Funded by Power to Change <http://www.powertochange.org.uk/> and the Arts
and Humanities Research Council <http://www.ahrc.ac.uk/>, CUPI supports
community organisations (including community businesses, charities, social
enterprises, and voluntary organisations) and university researchers to
create trusting and useful research collaborations which benefit all the
partners involved.

Are you curious about building a new partnership? Have you got a research
idea you are keen to explore? Then a CUPI match event could be a perfect
opportunity to get involved.

Current Event details:

   - Bristol – Thursday 22nd March at Knowle West Media Centre
   <http://kwmc.org.uk/> 10:30am – 4:30pm. *Deadline for applications –
   28th February.*
   - Manchester – Tuesday 17th April at at *St Thomas Centre
   <https://www.gmcvo.org.uk/stc>* 10:30am and 4:30pm. *Deadline for
   applications – 20th March*

Please note that applying for a match event does not guarantee your place.
We will be back in touch 3 weeks prior to the event to confirm whether
applicants have been successful. Places will be prioritised for those who
can attend the whole event.

CUPI is based on the successful MUPI programme – which found that a
regional focus helped ensure attendees found relevant people to work with.
4 pilot match events will be taking place in England, in line with Power to
Changes remit, however applications are open to those from across the UK
who identify with the geographical area of the match event. Following
evaluation of the pilot programme, we will seek funding to enable us to
develop more comprehensive coverage across the UK.
