BIG - People and Places Recession - Wales

BIG have extended the People and Places programme. The programme will remain open for applications until mid-2011. The current programme will be reviewed and will be followed by a new People and Places programme in 2011. The successor programme will build on the success of the existing People and Places and as a result is likely to have many similarities.


They will fund capital and revenue projects that encourage co-ordinated action by people who want to make their communities better places to live. They will support local and regional projects throughout Wales that focus on:

· revitalising communities improving community relationships

· enhancing local environments, community services and buildings


The main aim is to bring people together to create real improvements to communities and the lives of people most in need.

The project should be community led, so helping people to develop the skills and confidence to become more involved in their community is an important feature of this programme.


They will only make grants to voluntary, community or public sector organisations either working separately or together, under this programme.
