Application process
Organisations will apply for funding through two stages.
The first stage of the application process will be to complete an Expression of Interest (EOI) which is open from Friday 13th December 2024 to Tuesday 7th January 2025.
You can find the EOI form here.
A panel will assess your EOI and you will be notified if your application has progressed to the next stage.
The second stage will consist of a full application which opens on Friday 10th January 2025 and will close on Friday 24th January 2025.
Please use the attached documents to consider whether your project will meet the overarching strategic outcomes of the Whole Family Wellbeing Partnership (see ‘Model of Care’). You will need to describe how your work will address the key outcomes and issues raised in key performance indicators which we have highlighted below.
If you wish to be considered for the £25,000 Family Wellbeing Partnership Funding, please indicate on the EOI if your project is for ‘under ones’/prenatal, and whether the project aims to reduce current numbers on the Child Protection Register.
