Decision

 

The Committee agreed:-

 

1.     That applicants awarded funding from the Council’s Supporting Communities Fund in 2020/21 are allowed to carry forward their project, activity or event as set out in their application, in the following financial year. The deadline to spend would move from 31 March 2021 to 31 March 2022.

 

2.     That the applicant group will not be able to apply for funding in 2021/22 for a project / event / activity which duplicates that which has been funded for 2020/21.

 

3.     A communication is issued to all successful applicants for 2020/21 advising them of these agreed recommendations and highlighting that their funded project event or activity can be undertaken through different approaches such as on-line to provide as much flexibility as possible to allow it to take place.
