NOTE: This was received from Emma Storey, K&M Area Office. The application form is attached below.
“Hello all,
There is an opportunity for constituted community groups in the Shire to apply for up to £2000 for opportunities that provide an educational experience for the people who volunteer with you or the people you serve. There will be a quick turnaround on applications approved (within 2 weeks) and the money transferred to the group’s bank account soon after (a bank account is a must). This fund was predominantly for groups in the north of the shire but has been opened for consideration in central and south.
Ideas or opportunities may be:
· Provision of training – First Aid, Hygiene, Cooking, specific training or learning in your area of interest etc etc
· A fun educational experience – a visit somewhere for people you work with or serve, or bringing someone in to your service, or organising an event that will provide a learning opportunity of some kind
The application form is attached for you to have a look at. Please get in touch if you would like to discuss any ideas and/or apply.
The only other requirement is that you can provide:
A copy of your organisation’s most recent accounts
A copy of your organisation’s constitution or equivalent
Thanks
Emma”
