Following the introduction of the Wellbeing of Future Generations (WFG) Act, the Welsh Government will be launching a new project funding stream for small scale projects (up to £15k, subject to revision) or larger scale project (up to £200k, subject to revision). Guidance has yet to be issued, but the new project funding streams are:
Small Scale projects (up to £15k, subject to revision), to be completed by end of March 2016
- Open to local groups
- Simple application process
- Can demonstrate delivery of multiple benefits
Larger scale projects (over £15k up to £200k subject to revision), to be completed by end of March 2017
- Open to broad range of organisations
- Looking for innovative approaches and integrated actions delivering multiple benefits
- Delivering against Ministerial priorities and Bill goals
- Timescales for applications will be announced shortly
The Welsh Government hopes to open these funds for applications in June, after which you will have 8 weeks to apply for the small scale stream and 12 weeks for the larger scale. We will let you know in this newsletter when we hear.
