New NHS Bristol small grants scheme for Peer Support for People with Dementia and/or their Carers

In my role as Compact Liaison Officer, I have been collaborating with NHS Bristol in making this grants scheme attractive to smaller voluntary sector and community groups. The commissioners are keen to ensure that groups working with older people, using peer support activities or working around mental health get to know about this grants scheme - hence this email.

A limited number of grants are now available for the voluntary sector and community groups from NHS Bristol for activities for peer support for people with dementia and their carers. For more information, visit http://www.voscur.org/funding/healthandwellbeing and download the flyer, cover letter, guidance notes and application form.

The deadline for applications is 5pm Wednesday 30th June 2010.
