East Ayrshire's Community Planning Partnership Board is developing an Anti-Poverty and Inequality Strategy which will focus on five main themes:
- Household Poverty
- Child Poverty
- Health and Wellbeing Inequalities
- Building Individual and Community Resilience
- Building Organisation Capacity to Tackle Poverty
In order to support communities to tackle poverty successfully, the Partnership has agreed an allocation of funds to be distributed through the Anti-Poverty and Inequalities Grant.
These funds are aimed at providing resources for innovative projects which will assist in tackling one (or more) of the five main themes identified. Applications are welcome from any constituted third sector partner and should propose new initiatives, an extension of current provision, or ensure the long term sustainability of a current project.
KEY CONSIDERATIONS
Projects should:
Connect to one or more of the five themes
Be revenue projects only
Develop, sustain or enhance activity
Be co-produced with individuals with lived experience
Partnerships should be formed with other local groups or, if you are an organisation based out with the community you aim to work in, local partners should be identified and engaged with.
The Anti-Poverty and Inequality Guidance provides further information on the application form and the important criteria which will help applicants score higher as part of the assessment.
