0 ESF Community Learning Grants – Panel Members urgently needed

The Time Commitment

In the last round each of the assessment panel had 10 applications to assess. Most said they did this in 4 -5 hours. We emailed the applications to the panel members with the scoring sheets and once completed they are emailed back to us. We will send these out on the 6 Jan and the panel member would have to get them back to us by the 13 Jan. We then have a panel meeting at the WEA office in Liverpool on the 17 Jan (booked from 10:00 -16:00) which we would like all the assessment panel to attend. There is usually a training meeting for new panel members but due to the shortage of time I will cover this with a short one –to – one meeting. Other than completing a short enrolment form that’s the full commitment.

We are delighted to announce the launch of the Woman to Woman fund. With grants of up to £25,000, no fewer than 100 local grassroots women’s organisations across the UK will be supported using funds from the ‘Tampon Tax.’

Grants are available for groups with an income of under £100,000 per year, to support a wide range of charitable work that benefits women: from building confidence and leadership skills, tackling harassment and violence, to training in financial literacy and increasing engagement in decision-making – and much more besides.

Rosa especially wants to support groups that work with disadvantaged communities or in disadvantaged areas. Grants can pay for core work, as well as mobilising volunteers, leadership development, communications and advocacy.

0 Funding to Address the Needs of Women Offenders – Deadline: 30th January 2017

The Ministry of Justice (MoJ) has launched a new £800,000 fund to support local areas in England and Wales to develop a multi-agency approach to improve the support available for female offenders and other women with complex needs who may be at risk of offending.

£200,000 will be available in each of the financial years from 2016 to 2017 through to 2019 to 2020. The maximum grant is likely to be in the region of £70,000. The funding is available to any organisation that can provide the necessary leadership to develop a Whole System Approach (WSA) in a local area. Applicants are invited to bid for funding over 2 or more years.

Bids will also be considered for one-year funding in 2016 to 2017, to support preparatory work in areas that are at the early stages of development. Projects must start by 1 March 2017 and deliver a sustainable, embedded multi-agency service to provide effective support to female offenders throughout their offender journey, and to women at risk of offending, including serious offending.

The application deadline is 12 noon on the 30th January 2017.
