Living Well Community Capacity Funding 2022-2023 (Year 4)

Argyll & Bute HSCP has launched year 4 of the Living Well (Self Management) community capacity building fund, open to Third Sector organisations who currently deliver services/support to adults over the age of 18 living in Argyll and Bute.

Applications are invited from third sector organisations that can support us to deliver on the Living Well Strategy. Bids must provide measurable value, lasting change and positive impact on the lives of people living in Argyll and Bute.

This year (2022-2023) we are looking to fund third sector projects which have a particular focus on:

• Supporting volunteer wellbeing. These can be activities that you provide to support the wellbeing of the volunteers in your organisation.

• Reducing isolation and improving community networks, e.g. through befriending or peer support.

• Supporting healthy weight or access/cost around food via sustainable food programmes in our communities, e.g. community garden projects.

We are looking for activities to support the priorities above. We welcome partnership bids.

This funding stream is targeted at adults over 18 but we will consider bids that also include young people as part of the overall service/project.

Activities should be:

• Enabling

• Improve health and well being

• Motivational

A single application process opens on 31st October 2022 and closes at midnight on 25th November. Maximum amount available for 1 single application is £5000.
