Online Briefing Sessions | UKSPF Digital Connectivity Grants Programme | Round 4

VOLA is launching Round 4 of its UKSPF Digital Connectivity for Community Facilities Grants programme w/c 20 May 2024. Grants of up to £10k will be awarded to successful applicants in July 2024.  Watch this brief film to see if you think it could be for you.

Over the first three funding rounds, a total of £303k has been awarded to 46 Liverpool-based VCFSE sector organisations, with up to £129k available in this round. One further ‘mop-up’ round will launch mid-September, but the intention is to commit as much of the remaining funding as possible in Round 4, so please don’t wait in case you miss out.

Prior to the launch of the application window, VOLA will be hosting online briefing sessions to inform Liverpool’s VCFSE sector organisations about the fund.

 

The first briefing session, run in partnership with LCVS, will take place on Wednesday 15 May 2024 from 10.30 – 11.45 AM on Zoom.

The aim of this session is to inform potential applicants about the fund’s purpose, eligibility criteria and key requirements, the application process and what can/cannot be funded. 

If you are unable to make this date, there are other ones for other boroughs that you are welcome to attend – see VOLA’s website for details.

 

The second briefing session, will take place on Tuesday 21 May 2024 from 1 – 2.15 PM on Zoom.

The session will focus on technical considerations when developing-public access computer facilities, containing plenty of helpful hints and tips on what you need to do, key considerations, things you need to purchase, etc.

To register for either of these sessions, please email patrick.nicholls@volamerseyside.org.uk and he will send you the Zoom links.  If not obvious from your email address, please include your name and organisation.
