Investing in Community Health Fund

The fund aims to tackle pressing health challenges through targeted support to local non-profit organisations. £50,000 will be equally distributed to organisations in each of the region’s 13 Integrated Neighbourhoods, ensuring that resources reach communities. This localised approach will enable organisations to address specific health needs within their communities while building sustainable capacity for the future.

The fund will focus on three strategic priorities:

  • Improving healthy lifestyles
  • Reducing frailty and social isolation
  • Reducing obesity and educating communities about healthy eating

The fund will be divided into 13 equal amounts of funding (£50,000), one for each Integrated Neighbourhood. The aim is to build capacity based on the specific needs of each local area, leveraging existing local VCSE providers to strengthen current services and provisions. The 13 Integrated Neighbourhoods are listed below. A list of GP Surgeries that link to each Integrated Neighbourhood can be seen here.

Applicant groups are able to apply for projects covering more than one Integrated Neighbourhood (a maximum of £50,000 per Integrated Neighbourhood). However, applicants must make it clear in their budget how costings are broken down per Integrated Neighbourhood. Applicants must also be prepared for the possibility that funding may not be received for every Integrated Neighbourhood within an application.
