FW: Targeting Change Fund
Sue Bentley
I have received this from our local council in my capacity as chair of the Harpenden Fairtrade Town Steering Group but it looks as if it offers funding in particular for environment projects.
The closing date for applications is very soon – 23rd December but please do circulate to anyone who might be interested.
Best wishes
Sue

Dear
All
I hope this email finds you
well.
I thought you may be interested
in this possible funding opportunity - Targeting Change Fund - which I attach
details. The fund allows voluntary groups, local charities and community groups
to bid for funds between £2,000 and £10,000.
Bid applications will need to
demonstrate clear links to the priorities in the District's Sustainable
Community Strategy (http://www.stalbanslsp.org.uk/strategy/default.aspx)
and outcomes which will help
address one or more of the following gap areas:-
Priorities
· Ensuring
that the District is a great place to be
· Creating
a diverse and sustainable economy for the 21st century
· Keeping
the District healthy
· Supporting
an active community that has pride in itself and cares for its future
Identified Gap Areas
a. Providing accessible
facilities and activities for young people
b. Helping to build the capacity
of the voluntary and community sector to provide preventative and support
services
c. Encouraging and promoting
community engagement and participation
d. Promoting sustainable local
economic development
e. Meeting the needs of an aging
population
f. Reducing our impact on the
environment
g. Reducing inequalities
More details can be found at: http://www.stalbanslsp.org.uk/ The
closing date is the 23 December 2009.
I attach the guidance notes and
the application form for your convenience.
If you do decide to apply it
would be great if you could give me details of your project.
Kind regards
Helen Eadon
