Projects will be prioritised if they can demonstrate the following. PLEASE NOTE: this fund is significantly oversubscribed and successful applications meet most, if not all, of these: • A sustainable approach to poverty reduction, which means building long-term capacity and resilience, whilst also relieving short-term need. • Support for parents and children in need, including early years education. • Support for particularly disadvantaged and under-served groups • Tangible outcomes that would not be possible without this funding (e.g. the delivery of a one-off project which would otherwise not be affordable). • Organisations working within 5km of Cambridge City, priority will be given to organisations based in Cambridgeshire Applications from organisations that have received either more than three years of funding or more than £30,000 in total are likely to be deprioritised. Capital costs will be considered.
