The Forward for Families Partnership is now open, with a total of £900,000 of funding available. This fund is focused on improving the lives and outcomes for children, young people and families in Scotland who are affected by drugs and alcohol. Deadline: 28th November.
Way Forward is focused on improving the lives and outcomes for children, young people and families in Scotland who are affected by drugs and alcohol. The Fund is designed and delivered in partnership with a Youth Advisory Group and a Steering Group. Together, these bring a wealth of skills and knowledge to the programme. It is funded by Corra Foundation and the Scottish Government, building on over 20 years of work through Partnership Drugs Initiative (PDI).
Young people with lived experience of drugs and alcohol affecting their lives are at the heart of decision making. Their expertise helps ensure the money is spent on what will make a difference to the lives of families.
Applications are invited from partnerships – with a third sector organisation as the lead applicant and one or more partners, one of which must be a public sector body. Partnerships can apply for funding of up to £250,000 over three years, and must be match funded by a public sector partner.
Organisations interested in applying to the fund should contact by emailing WFFP@corra.scot, or phoning – to arrange an initial discussion about your project.
The closing date for applications is 2pm on Thursday 28th November 2024.
