Funding to Support Children and Young People in Sandwell

Are you an experienced not-for-profit organisation currently delivering Emotional Wellbeing Support to children and young people aged 5 -18?  Do you deliver these services in Sandwell, Dudley, Wolverhampton, Walsall or in Wards of West Birmingham?  Can you deliver individual or group support in the areas of Bereavement and Loss, Counselling, Distressed Behaviour, Domestic Abuse, Emotional Literacy or Social Skills and Relationships?

If you can answer yes to any of these questions, you may be interested in the Children and Young People Emotional Wellbeing and Grant Programme 2023. Building on the success of a previous programme, Sandwell Council have allocated a further £500,000 to extend the Programme into 2023.

The Programme must be delivered by December 2023, so this funding is only suitable for existing organisations with capacity to deliver quickly. If you would like an Application Form and Guidance Notes, please email Barbara@scvo.info and give brief details of how you meet the criteria specified above. In addition, there is an open meeting on Teams for potential applicants to raise any queries or questions they have about the Programme or the Application process. This will be held on Wednesday, 18th January between 2 & 3.30 pm. Further information on booking a place is in the Guidance Notes.

The closing date for completed applications is Monday, 30th January at 10.00 am.
