Grants of up to £1,000 or between £1,000 and £20,000 were made to community projects meeting the criteria. This fund is currently closed for applications.
Funded by Public Health at Herefordshire Council, Herefordshire Together is looking for impactful community-led initiatives to achieve two priorities:
- Priority 1. Creating lasting meaningful connections for people to improve emotional wellbeing and sense of community belonging
- Priority 2. Strengthen reach to families in need
Both of these supports the 10-year health & wellbeing priorities in Herefordshire.
Projects should seek to acheive the following impacts for these priorities
- Priority 1
- Reduce loneliness & isolation
- Increase connections through community activity
- Increase connections through intergenerational activity
- Increase connections through nature, greenspace and arts
- Increase peer support for emotional wellbeing
- Priority 2
- Reduction in number of children experiencing neglect
- Reduction in number of children with experience of trauma or adverse childhood experiences
- Greater number of parents supported to develop healthy parenting routines and behaviours
- Increase number of children, who experience disadvantage, to have community based support
- Increase informal community-based support for children & families with special educational needs and disabilities, including neurodiversity
Applications to this fund are currently closed.
