Applications to #SpeakUp Small Grants Scheme open on 19th December!

News - 3 December 2018

Do you have an idea that could help improve health and care for your community?

The more people share their ideas, experiences and concerns about health and social care, the more services can understand when improvements are needed.

We’re pleased to announce the return of our #SpeakUp small grants scheme. This will be our 2nd year running and we hope to build on the success of the 1st round. 

The aim of our involvement fund is to help local not for profit, third sector, voluntary or community groups to run projects that help people share their experiences of health and care services, or develop ideas for improving care.

We will be awarding grants of up to £500 per successful applicant for community projects.

The grant scheme is being launched at our next VCF Health and Wellbeing Forum - 'Ready...Set...Engage!' where there will be opportunities to find out more and hear from previous recipients.

19th December 2018, 9.30-11.30am

The Circle, 33 Rockingham Lane
