We want applications from organisations working in partnership with others. Partners can be from the private, public or third sectors. We believe that telling us about the organisations you are working with will allow your application to demonstrate that the project is both of strategic value and sustainable in the medium term. Please tell us about your partners.

HOW IS YOUR PROJECT HELPING TO TACKLE POVERTY IN YOUR COMMUNITY?
The main focus of the Community Facilities Programme is to prevent or tackle poverty. This is your opportunity to tell us how your community facility is, or intends to be delivering community services, that help the individual members of your community. The three tackling poverty strands are: helping people to have better economic outcomes; better learning outcomes; and better health and wellbeing. You’ve told us about your partnerships; now tell us about the activities that your facility is or will be hosting and how they will deliver outcomes under one or more of these three strands to individuals in your community.
Please use no more than 500 words.
Please tell us what is unique about your community facility. What do you offer that other facilities in your area do not? Tell us why your facility is needed by the community. Please use no more than 500 words.
