Capacity building funds for marginalised groups
1st September 2006, 1:22 pm
CapacityBuilders, the body managing the government’s ChangeUp funding to improve the infrastructure (support) for the voluntary and community sector, has launched a new £6 million ‘Improving Reach’ fund. This is aimed at improving support for a range of marginalised groups, in particular Black and minority ethnic groups, Refugee and migrant groups, Faith groups and Isolated rural groups.
It is a pilot running to March 2008, but submissions are needed by 10th October. http://www.capacitybuilders.org.uk/fund/newfund/default.asp. New Start news item at http://www.newstartmag.co.uk/news997.html.
