Minutes:
The Board considered a report of the Strategic Director, People, on
Voluntary Sector Grant Funding Awards for 2018/19.
The Board was advised that the Council had awarded direct grants to
local voluntary and charitable organisations for a number of years.
Applications were assessed against key criteria, such as impact on outcomes for
local people, volunteering and training development opportunities and the
impact on reducing the need for statutory services.
It was reported that applications were assessed and recommendations
agreed, by a Panel which consisted of the Portfolio holder for Economic
Development and Officers from the People Directorate. The report set out the
recommendations for an annual allocation for the financial year 2018/19, with
the available budget of £214,000, for Members’ consideration.
RESOLVED: That the Board approve the grant allocations as
outlined in the report.
