Approval from the Assistant Director Resources
following consultation with the Executive Member for Finance and
the Executive Member for Corporate Services to authorise submission
of an expression of interest for grant funding in the amount of up
to £500,000.
To ensure all appropriate permissions are
obtained at this stage and enable the Council to engage with the
funding application process.
This project is being designed in conjunction
with trusted voluntary sector partners across the County. This is
based and built on their experience within their communities and
with consideration to the existing Pomoc Project in Scarborough and
Ryedale.
The alternative approach should the decision be taken to not apply
for Lottery funding would be for Officers from the Council’s
Migrants Programme team to develop access to services and community
development interventions utilising smaller external funding
sources on a community by community basis. However, the approach
outlined in this report offers a more consistent and identifiable
programme of activity
