by Karen Tuckley

Sandwell MBC are inviting local community and voluntary sector organisations to express their interest in applying for a grant of up to £40,000 to deliver a community-based mental health and wellbeing programme to support a number of different groups and communities,  who have been identified as requiring additional support through the development of the Sandwell Better Mental Health strategy. We are looking for projects that understand the needs and experiences of the identified groups/communities and are able to provide appropriate support.

There will be a total of three rounds of funding, with projects being delivered over a 12-month period.

This is the second round of funding and is for projects to work with:

  1. People who are deaf, have hearing loss or impairment
  2. People who are blind, have sight loss or have a visual impairment
  3. People with a disability or long-term condition (click here for more information)
