THIRD SECTOR GRANT FUNDING  – APPLICATION FORM FOR 2012/13 NOW AVAILABLE

DEADLINE FOR PHASE 2 APPLICATIONS: FRIDAY 22 JUNE

Welcome to Argyll and Bute Council’s Grant Application Pack for Third Sector organisations involved in community initiatives, including events and festivals. 

The Third Sector covers a range of organisations including voluntary, community, trusts, charities and social enterprises.  Any Third Sector organisation involved in sports and leisure, arts and culture, social welfare or education may be eligible to apply for a grant. 

Almost 120 community groups and organisations across Argyll and Bute benefited from the Council’s £219,0000 Third Sector Grants programme for community initiatives in 2011.   The grants supported a wide range of groups and events, including people with health issues, young people, elderly people, crime victims and people with debt and transportation problems.

The Third Sector Grants programme is split into central and local grants and is aimed at supporting communities and vulnerable people, and helping to kick start new projects and events.

Central applications for organisations delivering a service Argyll and Bute wide will be considered by the Executive in June 2012.   

Local applications are considered twice a year at Area Committees in April and August.  The closing date for the return of completed application forms for the August Committee is Friday 22 June 2012.  The application form is attached below.
