Summary
The Community Services and Licensing Committee resolved to adopt proposed changes to the Community Wellbeing Grant scheme and delegate authority to the lead officer for necessary agreements. These changes aim to improve grant delivery, align with VCSE principles, and target funding towards Community Hubs, specialist wellbeing providers, and Cultural Hubs. The committee also agreed to one to two-year grant agreements, holding back some budget for new partners, and to signpost previous recipients to alternative funding routes like Small Grants or the Stroud Funding platform.
