South West voluntary sector organisations have been rewarded for their quick response to a new government funding initiative. The Transition Fund programme was launched last autumn with a deadline for applications early in 2011, and is aimed at helping "front-line service providers" from the region's community and voluntary sector organisations adapt to the massive changes in funding that have arisen from last year's government spending review. A total of £15m was available across England of which South West organisations will receive £2.2m (14.75%). In all,183 organisations have been successful, of which 27 are from the South West (14.66%). Added on: 15-Apr-2011 Read more... |
