The response to the COVID-19 pandemic has seen many organisations across Derbyshire working to ensure the needs of the most vulnerable residents are met.
The COVID-19 Community Fund aims to support voluntary and community sector organisations by providing much needed funding. This allows them to continue to play a key role in the local response to COVID-19 and to improve the health and wellbeing of Derbyshire residents.
- Formally constituted organisations can apply for a maximum of £2,000.
- Non-constituted organisations can apply for a maximum of £250.
Application must meet at least one of the fund’s criteria which include:
- Increase mental health and wellbeing and support individual and community resilience.
- Directly address health inequalities arising from, or made worse, by the pandemic.
If you have previously received a grant from the COVID-19 Community Response Fund, you are eligible to reapply. However, the second application must not be a duplication of the original request.
Applications are reviewed by the panel on a regular basis. The fund’s closing date will now be JUNE 2024.
