Community Capacity Building…
Conwy Cynhaliol (Sustainable Conwy) (2011-2013) is a local scheme offering grant support for local communities to strengthen their skills and abilities to take leading roles in their own development.
Funding is available to support a range of measures such as:
Community consultations or appraisals to identify demand for facilities or services
Action plans to provide a sound framework for projects
Training for members of the community to participate in locally run projects
Events to raise awareness of locally important issues
Feasibility studies to support cases for other projects and funding
Funding is available for up to 75% of costs, subject to eligibility. Projects of all scales will be considered although those which demonstrate partnership working and have both wide support and offer wide benefits will be prioritised.
Applications follow a two stage process, following initial discussion with a project officer:
1 Submission of formal Expression of Interest (EoI)
Form available from the project officer
Decision on suitability taken by Conwy Rural Partnership’s
