We are looking to fund projects run by adult and children’s hospices
that strengthen support, advice or training to provide care at home, so
allowing people to stay at home for longer.
Funding for the programme is
provided by the St. James’s Place Foundation, and Help the Hospices is managing
the grants programme on its behalf.
Major grants
Grants of up to £40,000 are available for
projects running over 12 to 18 months. This can be to implement work that either:
-
addresses the findings from feasibility
study/scoping exercise
-
supports new, larger stand-alone
projects demonstrating a clear evidence of need.
Available funding
Total available funding in this grant
round is £140,000. We expect to make between three and four grants in this
round.
Deadlines
The deadline for applications is 22 February 2012. Applicants will be
informed about whether they have been successful by the end of March 2012.
