A feed reader shows you new opportunities as they appear, without an email or a visit. Copy a feed's link into any reader (Feedly, Inoreader, NetNewsWire, Thunderbird or Outlook all work). Each item links to the opportunity's page on Bearings, then one click to the provider. Feeds update every weekday morning. The numbers show how many opportunities each one matches today; a feed carries the newest 100.

By area
"Local offers only" means that area's own offers plus those open across the whole North West. "Everything it can apply for" adds UK-wide and international offers. Both leave out anything limited to another area. Contracts have their own feed for each area.

By sector, anywhere or in your area
A sector feed holds what is aimed at that sector, not every offer open to any business (those are under Any sector). Choose "Anywhere", or your area to leave out offers limited to somewhere else. Contracts are left out of sector feeds; for contracts in a sector, choose it with the type "Tenders & contracts" in Make your own feed.
