Standard Awards
It is anticipated that many of the applicants for support from a small grants budget
will fall into a number of identifiable groupings.
In these circumstances it is recommended that the following standard levels of grant
be considered if the applicant fulfils all eligibility and related requirements.
These standard amounts should only be varied in circumstances in which the awarding
Committee feels are appropriate.
- New organisations: £100 start-up grants for groups setting
up for the first time.
- Elderly/Senior Citizens Clubs: £200 per annum for programme
costs.
- Youth Clubs: £250 per annum for programme costs.
- Tenants/Residents Associations: £250 per annum for programme
costs.
- Pre-Five Organisations: £350 for equipment identified in
annual inspections.
- Playschemes: The Council should consider using formulae previously
utilised by SRC Community Grants Committee.
- Gala Days: £100
In any instance where Reporting Departments are recommending that these Amounts
should be exceeded, please state fully your reason for doing so.
