Description

Southend Borough Council (SBC) and the NHS Southend Clinical Commissioning Group (SCCG) are inviting applications for Project Related Funding over a one year period from groups, organisations or consortia.
This contract will be in place from 3rd December 2018 (subject to implementation) and will run until 30th November 2018.
The expected value of each contract awarded will be up to £50,000 although the Project-Related Funding Panel will consider applications for funding of projects above £50,000 where there is evidence that all of the outcomes can be met and there is no duplication with currently commissioned service. This is the second round of applications. The maximum available funding for all projects collectively is £80,000.

Through the allocation of the total project related fund we are looking for a range of projects which will cover the five specified outcomes below.
Outcome 1:
The project helps carers and their families to maintain independence, physical and emotional wellbeing
Outcome 2:
The project empowers and supports carers to manage their caring roles and have a life outside of caring
Outcome 3:
The Project ensures carers receive the right support, at the right time, and in the right place
Outcome 4:
The project utilises existing community resources and assets to increase social growth and development across Southend.
Outcome 5:
The project has the potential to become sustainable or leave a legacy further to the end of the Project Related Funding
