Details

There are seven Local Partnerships which local organisations can apply to which are: Renfrew, Erskine, Inchinnan, Bishopton and Langbank, The Villages, Johnstone and Linwood, Paisley North, West and Central, Paisley East, and Gleniffer.

Local Partnerships can award funding to local groups and projects which bring communities together.

Each Local Partnership has its own priorities. The partnership will prioritise the awarding of funding based on these priorities and projects they feel will have the most impact for people in their local area. Full details can be found on the Council website.

Some examples of projects funded previously include:

• improving community facilities such as a building or land to make them better and more accessible for community use
• enhancing or creating community gardens to provide attractive spaces for the community
• community events that provide opportunities for local people to gather together
• projects that help people get out and meet together so they are socially connected in the community and do not feel isolated.

How to apply

Apply online via the Council website. You should clearly show how your project contributes to the Local Partnership's priorities in the area you are applying.

Your application should explain:

• Who will benefit
• Why the project is needed
• What will your project do (when, where and how often)
• How you'll deliver your project (people and resources).
• You should also think about how the project adds value to services currently available in that community and work collaboratively with other groups to maximise the impact of the project.

Be clear about:

• where the project is based
• how it is promoted within the Local Partnership
• how you know it will benefit people from the Local Partnership you are applying to.
