The Manchester City Council is seeking applications for International Women’s Day.
Manchester City Council is a long-standing supporter of gender equality and supports annual activities every March to promote and celebrate International Women’s Day.
Scope
They want to make International Women’s Day 2023 as accessible, participatory and enjoyable for everyone as possible. Funding is therefore open to community groups and not for profit / voluntary organisations, for anything that’s going to contribute to a really enjoyable celebration of women.
Funding Information
- The International Women’s Day 2022/23 fund is £10,000, and they want to support as many applicants from this as possible. Each applicant is therefore invited to apply for funding to the sum of either £100, £250 or £500.
Eligibility Criteria
- Key details and considerations for applications:
- You (or your organisation) must be based within the Manchester City Council region to be eligible for funding (for example, you should pay your business rates or council tax to Manchester City Council), your audience or participants can be based within this region and beyond but must include a majority of Manchester residents. They welcome all applicants who are doing activities and events across the city and within local communities.
- You can apply for funding to deliver a one-off celebration to take place on or around International Women’s Day 2023 and this can be hybrid or in person.
- The event or activity must benefit a minimum of 10 people.
- Make sure you tell us how your event or activity will help people.
