Voluntary & Community Sector Organisations: Future Planning and Funding

This forthcoming online workshop on May 25th, 2022 will be hosted by Bath & NE Somerset (B&NES) Council’s Public Health Team, and aims to engage with local Voluntary and Community Sector (VCS) partners to develop the B&NES Living Safely with COVID-19 Plan and to share information about the next round of Contain Outbreak Management Fund (COMF) monies available and the process for applying for this funding.

This workshop will provide an opportunity to reflect on key learning, address issues, needs and opportunities, and inform the Council’s future strategic approach to Living Safely with COVID-19.  In addition, this event provides an opportunity for VCS partners  to learn more about the criteria and context for this round of COMF grant funding and to consider collaborating with partners in submitting bids.

We hope you will be able to join us to:

• Hear about the B&NES Contain Outbreak Management Fund (COMF) funding criteria and process for applying for COMF Round 2 grants 2022/23

• Consider opportunities for collaborating with other VCS organisations on the development of grant applications

• Share your views and experience on developing community resilience

• Contribute to the development of our B&NES Living Safely with COVID-19 Plan
