We are delighted to share an update on this year’s Communities Mental Health and Wellbeing Fund in Edinburgh.
We’ve already been in touch with all the groups and organisations who were awarded funding for April 2023 – 2024. Those interested in continuing their project after March 2024 will hear the outcome of their request by Fri 22 Dec 2023 – unless we have been in touch to let you know otherwise.
Once all decisions have been made on continuation funding, we anticipate there will be £125,000 available to invest in new projects.
Apply for Funding for a New Project
If you are interested in applying for funding for a new project please register to attend an in-person event in your area.
The purpose of these events is to discuss what is needed in your locality, what you would like to do and who you might work with.
- North East: Tue 16 Jan, 1pm – 4pm
@ Artlink (Ocean Terminal studio space, Curious Routes Studio, 1st Floor, EH6 6JJ) - South East: Thu 18 Jan, 1pm – 4pm
@ Inch Park Community Sports Club, 227 Gilmerton Rd, EH16 5UD - North West: Tue 23 Jan, 1pm – 4pm
@ Lifecare, 2 Cheyne St, EH4 1JB - South West: Wed 24 Jan 1:30pm – 4:30pm
@ WHALE Arts, 30 Westburn Grove, EH14 2SA
We would encourage you to attend the event in your locality, but if that isn’t possible you can join us online instead:
- Mon 29 Jan, 2pm – 4pm (Zoom)
These events will also provide details on how to move forward with a new application.
People with Lived Experienced
We are keen to hear from people with lived experience at these events, so it would be great if you could encourage one or more of the people you work with to come along too.
Citywide Organisations/Projects
We understand that not everyone will be planning to work in just one locality. Please choose to attend the event in the locality which is most relevant.
