TSL Kirklees are accepting applications from local groups
Kirklees Council have provided Third Sector Leaders Kirklees with a grant of £60,000, which is available for local groups who are supporting people in crisis or financial hardship.
This is funding from the Local Welfare Provision budget. It’s in addition to the £32,000 previously provided for emergency food supplies at the weekends during lockdown and helping local groups to continue to support people.
What the fund can be used for
The Supporting Communities fund can be used by community groups in Kirklees for:
- Supporting people in financial hardship
- Providing food and essential supplies
- Set up costs and membership of food share schemes (for example, Fare Share)
- Building financial resilience
How to apply
The application process is very simple and grants can be approved and given very quickly.
