The Funding and Development Advice Manager within the Archive Sector Development team of The National Archives is available to give free advice to any organisation within the UK hoping to develop projects involving archives, and looking for advice about lottery funding.
NB: This post has taken over this role from the Archive Lottery Advisory Service run by the National Council on Archives from 1997 to 2010.
The service is independent from any lottery distributors, and is designed to complement any advice from the lottery distributors themselves.
Enquiries from community groups are welcome.
The Funding and Development Advice Manager, Louise Ray, is available to help answer queries ranging from basic information about what lottery funding is available, to how best to plan your project and present it in the application in order to maximise your chances of being successful. Where possible, Louise will also seek to direct groups to other sources of advice on specific types of activities that they might seek to include in their project, or potential partners.

- Letter: Louise Ray, Archive Sector Development, The National Archives, Kew, Richmond, Surrey, TW9 4DU
