The Way Forward for Families Partnership

This fund is delivered in partnership with Corra Foundation and Scottish Government. It will continue to focus on improving the lives and outcomes for children, young people and families in Scotland who are affected by drugs and alcohol.

The Way Forward for Families Partnership funding programme opens following a review and re-design of the Partnership Drugs Initiative. This fund is delivered in partnership with Corra Foundation and Scottish Government and will continue to focus on improving the lives and outcomes for children, young people and families in Scotland who are affected by drugs and alcohol.

Applications are invited from partnerships for funding of up to £250,000 over three years.

Organisations interested in applying to the fund should email WFFP@corra.scot, or phone 0131 444 4020 – to arrange an initial discussion about your project.

Demand for the fund is expected to be high and it is expected that a small number of grants will be available.  Organisations are encouraged to consider the criteria carefully and get in touch to arrange a welcome chat as early as convenient.

What can I apply for?

Grants of up to £250,000 over a three-year period, are available, for partnerships who are currently delivering work which directly supports children, young people and families affected by drugs and alcohol.

Funding can be used for a range of project costs – e.g. staff costs, activity costs, volunteer costs, costs which support participation and engagement, research and evaluation.

The Corra Foundation is unable to accept applications for capital development – they can fund equipment costs where these are not the predominate focus of the project, but cannot fund building or restoration works, or large/fixed equipment costs.
