ShiftthePower Scotland Comic Relief Programme

Posted on: August 23rd, 2019

"Are you a constituted voluntary or community organisation? Or a grassroots charity with an income of less than £250,000? If the answer is yes, you may be interested in the #ShiftthePower Comic Relief Scotland Programme.

This exciting new programme will support organisations with passionate people to make meaningful change in their communities.

It is open to community-led grassroots organisations and charities with an income of £250,000 or less whose work fits one of the four strategic themes:

  • Children Survive & Thrive – early years development for children facing disadvantage.
  • Gender Justice – contributing to gender equality by reducing violence and discrimination based on gender and sexuality.
  • A Safe Place to Be – supporting people who have experienced homelessness or have been forced from their homes in order to live safely.
  • Mental Health Matters – improving mental health provision and tackling stigma around mental health.

You can read more information on these themes in the criteria document."
