Deadline: 9-Dec-22
The West Dunbartonshire Council is now accepting applications for its Cost of Living – Capital Fund to support capital expenditure in relation to the cost of living crisis within West Dunbartonshire.
Funding Information
The total amount of funds available is capped at £1,000,000, with an annual cap of £250,000 applied in each of the four years between 2022/23 and 2025/26. Grant levels, although not fixed to an upper or lower level will therefore also be restricted. Value for money will be a main factor, and applications for larger amounts may have less chance since smaller grants allow more groups to be assisted.
What can the Grant be used for?
- The fund is available to help with capital costs incurred directly as a consequence of activity to help alleviate the impact of the Cost of Living Crisis on people living in West Dunbartonshire.
-
To qualify as capital spend, the asset created must last longer than one year, and has to either:
- Create and/or purchase a new tangible asset (such as purchase of a vehicle or computer equipment)
- Enhance an existing asset by either
- Upgrading an existing asset (such as replacing single glazed windows with double glazed)
- Extending the life of an asset (i.e. making it last longer)
- Extending the use of an asset (such as a building extension or room conversions).
Eligibility Criteria
Any organisation appropriately constituted or set up.
