Urban II wish to notify potential beneficiaries of the impending closure of its small grant fund – Community Chest.
This is therefore a last chance to access grants of up to £5000. The grants are available to community organisations within the inner North Belfast Urban II area to develop capacity in urban regeneration.
By offering groups the opportunity to access grant support for a fairly small yet very important project a chance is given for those groups to demonstrate their project and financial management skills with lower risk involved and an opportunity to build capacity.
Examples of the types of projects that might receive funding include:
Ø Research
Ø Consultations
Ø Audits
Ø Newsletters
Ø Training relating to the capacity of the group
Ø Networking
Ø Good Practice findings
Ø Pilot initiatives with a view to mainstream funding
Ø Innovative actions
Application forms and further information are available from:
North Belfast Partnership
2 Duncairn Gardens
Belfast

Please note that there are limited resources for this measure. Therefore, applications will be assessed competitively.
The final closing date for receipt of completed applications for Community Chest under the EU Urban II Community Initiative Programme is 4pm on Wednesday, 31 May 2006.
Please note the DISCRETIONARY AWARDS category is closed.
