Groundwork is working with One Stop Stores Ltd to administer the One Stop Community Partnership programme.
Successful applicants will receive an initial grant of up to £1,000 and begin a partnership with their local One Stop store. This programme is designed to support community groups or organisations operating within two miles of a One Stop store and which are tackling food poverty; supporting the vulnerable; supporting the elderly; supporting low-income families; running youth sports teams; improving the local environment; and reducing waste in the community.
Applications will be welcomed from a wide range of organisations including: voluntary/community organisations, registered charities, schools, health bodies, Parish/Town councils, social enterprises, Community Interest Companies.
The next closing date for applications is the 26th April 2024. Applicants are encouraged to visit their local One Stop store for more information.
The Park Easter egg hunt will be on 1st April by the Den. We will combine it with a walk to check for signs of spring and various craft activities. We will also have some nice snacks available.
Volunteering Wales is a website that connects people that want to volunteer with charities and other organisations in the voluntary sector. It also supports organisations from all kinds of sectors that are looking for volunteers, including public/statutory bodies like local authorities, health boards, police forces and all kinds of voluntary organisations.
It has recently been updated to make it easier for both organisations and volunteers to use.
Volunteering Wales is free to use and an extremely accessible way to grow a volunteer base or connect people with the voluntary sector, and with the improvements made to the site it’s easier than ever to use.
