This Fund was announced by the Scottish Government on 15 October 2021. Just over £1 million is available in this financial year, and the same again from April 2022.
It is being managed in Fife by Fife Voluntary Action, with support from local statutory partners.
This page contains all of the latest information about the local funding position, how to apply and how to access support. Further down you will see a list of questions and answers to help organisations understand the Fund and how to apply. Significant support is available from FVA to help organisations to apply to the Fund and to manage any grant award.
This page sets out the key criteria for eligible organisations and projects.
The application process will go live on Monday 15 November 2021, and grant awards will begin in early December.
There will be two deadlines: Wednesday 01 December - for those with project ideas already in mind and able to quickly submit an application, and Wednesday 19 January 2022 for those that need a little bit more time. Please remember, we are available to provide support with your project idea and application.
We're here to help organisations to make the most of the grants programmes that we manage - we want to help you to access the funds, manage them and report on the difference it has made. If you've got a grant from us, there are terms and conditions about keeping in touch with us and seeking our help if you're not too sure about anything.
If you're in the process of applying (or thinking about applying) then we're here to help answer questions and can help you with the completion of your funding application. Call us on 0800 389 6046 during business hours or e-mail the appropriate team directly using [email protected]
