Connected Voice is working with the NHS to support smaller voluntary, community and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations with their increased running costs during the cost of living crisis. We have £285,000 to allocate in grants of between £2,000 – £4,000 to VCSE organisations with an income of under £600,000 per year, who are feeling the pressure of increased running costs due to high inflation, energy price increases, and other financial pressures.

Organisations should be improving the health and wellbeing of local people in Newcastle and/or Gateshead, must be based in Newcastle or Gateshead, and we are prioritising those organisations working in areas of higher deprivation. We would like to get the grants out quickly and we will make some grants before the fund closes on the 15th of September 2022, so we are encouraging groups to apply as soon as possible.
