Staffordshire County Council COVID-19 Support Fund
Published 2 April 2020
A co-ordinated effort across community and voluntary groups in our county is making a huge difference to isolated and vulnerable people. Local people are also stepping up to put projects together make a difference.
Now the new COVID-19 Support Fund has been set up to help keep this happening. It’s rapid, flexible funding to support communities to do their bit and to make sure that the voluntary sector continues to thrive now and after the crisis.
Each county councillor has £2,500 to support community groups in their area to be resilient, safe and connected. No match funding is required.
Funding can be used by:
community groups to support new community activity (individuals that have come together to run a project – individuals cannot be funded) to help:
- people self-isolating or in quarantine
- the community to be resilient against the wider impact of COVID-19
- develop community networks to support either of the above
existing volunteer/community groups to:
- keep activity running that is supporting people through the Covid-19 crisis
- keep running – e.g. if they have experienced a loss of income through a lack of participants and still need to pay overheads
Local groups can find the form and the guidance information at https://www.staffordshire.gov.uk/Coronavirus/I-can-help/COVID-19-Support-Fund/COVID-19-support-fund.aspx – along with a range of other information for communities about the coronavirus and the work taking place.
