Reclaim Our Streets fund aims to support local communities affected by the recent riots in Merseyside. Grants are available to relieve hardship caused directly or indirectly by the riots in August 2011. The aim of this programme is to help support the immediate and longer term needs of local people through funding independent not-for-profit groups.
The grants panel has just met but need some more applications to spend the balance. Allocation has to be spent by end of December so the panel will meet again before Christmas.
If your organisation is working to regenerate the area following the disturbances, the panel is particularly keen to hear about your projects that focus on moving forward rather than looking back at the riots.
Applications are requested by the end of November.
You can download an application form from this page or go to www.cfmerseyside.org.uk.
