Trafford Partnership has made £50,000 available to support local projects to improve cohesion and inclusion in Trafford.
After working with Trafford’s established resident-led Community Cohesion Forum, which includes representatives from local Voluntary and Community organisations, Faith groups and public agencies, it was decided that grants of up to £5000 are available to support local projects.
We are looking for projects that:
· Create opportunities for people to engage with each other to enable understanding of different beliefs or cultures and build positive relationships
· Targeted engagement around issues of hate crime, knife crime, social isolation and loneliness,
· Build pride and strengthen communities by encouraging residents to volunteer, using local assets or promoting local activities to bring people together from different backgrounds,
· Targeted youth engagement that promotes community cohesion
All applications must be emailed to partnershipsteam@trafford.gov.uk by 12pm on Wednesday 4th December 2019
