Defending Local Grants
Is your Local Authority considering scrapping a crucial grant programme?
Is your PCT saying it's contracts or nothing? The Local Grants Forum (of which DSC is a member) has produced Defending Local Grants, a short leaflet to help you make the case for grant funding in your local area. It provides resources you can use to help convince councillors, commissioning officers and procurement professionals that grants should continue to be used to fund local organisations and groups.
