Derbyshire Dales CVS is holding an event on 30th January to promote Social Connectedness, and to discuss the new funding that has been made available to promote Social Connectedness in the Dales.

Derbyshire County Council has made available £53,000 in funding to be used in the Dales to support work that promotes Social Connectedness. DDCVS is administering the funding, and has formed a Local Action Group to decide how to best to use the funding. We are very interested in hearing your ideas for promoting Social Connectedness, and we would like to discuss any potential projects you have. We are aiming to make significant grants from the money: it is not a small grants scheme. If you are interested in gaining one of these grants for your organisation, it would be advantageous to come to the event.
