Deadline fast approaching for Volunteering Small Grants Programme

The closing date for applications for the Volunteering Small Grants Programme, launched last month by the Department for Communities Minister Paul Givan MLA, is 12 noon Friday 29th July.

The Volunteering Small Grants Programme provides grants of between £200 and £1,200 to help organisations throughout Northern Ireland recruit and support volunteers.

To be eligible, organisations must be formally constituted and must have an annual income not exceeding £100,000 per year.

The overall aim of the Programme includes increasing and encouraging volunteer activity and diversity by groups under-represented in the volunteering population and promoting innovative methods of supporting new and existing volunteers.
