Wednesday 30th November 2022
3pm – 5pm
The Hub @ Low Pavement, 61-63 Low Pavement, Chesterfield S40 1PA
Refreshments provided!
We would like to invite you, and your group members, to our drop in afternoon in Chesterfield town centre. We hope this will provide a chance for mental health groups to get together and catch up and hear more about what is happening across the Mental Health Voluntary Sector. Rachel is excited to share the outputs of the award winning Last Photo Exhibition, and is keen to discuss with groups different opportunities for us to work together on key events next year. Additionally, Rachel would love to hear more about what’s happening in your groups and how she can support you in your community based initiatives.
This is also an amazing opportunity to get advice if you would like to apply to the Mental Health Small Grants Scheme.
The Mental Health Small Grants Scheme is for small to medium Voluntary & Community organisations and Social Enterprises across Derbyshire and Derby city that work with people to improve their mental health.
There are two types of grants available:
- Mini grants of up to £500 for small groups and organisations, including non-constituted groups
- Small grants of up to £5000 for small to medium sized organisations, excluding non-constituted groups
We will be welcoming Claire and Naomi from Erewash Voluntary Action who will be around to answer any questions about the Mental Health Small Grants Scheme. If you are thinking of applying you are welcome to bring along a draft of your application and get some advice from Claire and Naomi.
The grant application documents are available from https://www.erewashvoluntaryaction.org.uk/dmhf and the scheme will accept applications until 16th December.
There will be plenty of mince pies and cake!
We hope to see you on the 30th.
