COMIC RELIEF "LOCAL COMMUNITIES" PROGRAMME

Grants of up to �10,000 are available through the Comic Relief "Local Communities" programme. The programme, which is being managed locally by Community Foundations, support projects that benefit people who are excluded or disadvantaged through low income, rural or social isolation, age, disabilities, race, sexuality or gender. Priority is given to small, locally-based groups or organisations in areas of disadvantage that have a clear understanding of the needs of their community and are undertaking actions as a means of addressing these needs. The programme is currently open for applications (please check with your community foundation (http://www.scottishcf.org/strengthening-communities/apply-for-a-grant) to find out when their deadline date is - there may be periods when the grant round temporarily closes.)
