BIG: The Big Lottery Fund report published recently suggests that for small front-line minority groups the quality of organisational support is more important than the identity of the provider. The study, commissioned by BIG and undertaken by Equal to the Occasion (ETTO) in 2009/2010, considered whether groups working in areas of ethnicity or sexual orientation receive better development support if it is delivered by infrastructure organisations that share their identity.
