This fund is now open for applications and will close Friday 27th March 2026 at 5pm. This fund will have two funding strands:
Innovation Strand
This strand will aim to fund projects with new approaches to prevention and early intervention. Priority activities include:
- Proactive engagement with vulnerable people
- Tackling loneliness and isolation
- Volunteer development projects
The Under Represented Areas Strand
This strand will support the residents of the Northern corridor and surrounding villages of Airdrie. Priority activities include:
- Proactive engagement with vulnerable people
- Tackling loneliness and isolation
- Volunteer development projects
But most demonstrate a clear tailoring of the proposed project to meet the needs of one of these two communities.
