People’s Health Trust funding

The PHT are launching their new Active Communities programme: 12th November.

£300,000 is available for local community groups (with an income of up to£350,000) supporting people living in the  30% most deprived areas in Sussex. Projects should encourage social interaction and be initiated designed and run by local people and grants of between £5000 and £25,000 a year are available.

Application is through an online form  at www.peopleshealthtrust.org.uk and the deadline is 24 December at 1pm.  You need to go to this website initially to see if you and your group are operating in one of their designated areas

SCF is able to give telephone and email advice and will also have a drop in here in Lewes on 12 December to talk through applications and ideas.  Our guidelines/criteria are on our website at www.sussexgiving.org.uk
