Funding can be spent on short breaks, or any additional staffing capacity or training connected with short breaks. This is not Capital funding.

We have not been given an indication of an amount available to us, although last year we were awarded an additional £30k, so that may give an indication. I am happy to receive bids from you for £5000 and upwards.

If there is anything you would like us to bid for funds for, given the above constraints, please could you complete the information below, and return it to me by close of play on Tuesday 22nd. December so I have time to collate the responses and form into a business case. (It would be helpful if you could let me know also if you are not going to submit a bid, so I know what I am expecting).

Thank you,

Sharon Sartin.
