New Funding Available - ACT FAST!

3rd Sector Resilience Fund

The Scottish Government has announced a new funding package, Third Sector Resilience Fund, to support voluntary sector services affected by the current recession. The fund opened on 30th October and will close on the 4th December 2009 - you must act fast to apply.

"The Third Sector Resilience Fund, which has the potential to mitigate the twin impacts of recession on some organisations of increased demand for their services and cash flow difficulties, will be open for five weeks from late October, and will provide immediate help to third sector organisations. Grants of between £10,000 and £100,000 will potentially be available to Third Sector organisations which can demonstrate how the recession has led to increased demand or significantly undermined their services." (Scottish Government)
