Dorset Community Foundation have launched phase 2 of the funding programme today – this will be the last funding available from the Coronavirus Fund.

This second phase can support activities running up to end of March 2021, so is looking at the more long term impact of the crisis, rather than immediate needs. They are still prioritising groups working with vulnerable people and those most impacted by the crisis.

The deadline to apply is noon on 28th August but if there are more urgent funding needs groups can apply for a smaller ‘fast track’ grant. Its all on the webpage.

If you need help with your application or need a reference, please dont hesitate to contact nathalie.sherring@dorsetrec.org.uk or telephone Dorset REC 01202 392954.
