Funding for voluntary and community organisations

Question:
Funding for voluntary and community organisations
Answer:

The council is helping VCS organisations with free access to volunteers through our volunteering hub with Volunteer Centre Tower Hamlets.

We will continue to fund VCS partners, including organisations whose grants are due to come to an end, and will contact organisations that might qualify for a three-month rent holiday.

Financial support is available through local, regional and national grant schemes, which can help organisations in Tower Hamlets with unexpected costs, loss of income or new projects.

Information is available from the National Council for Voluntary Organisations to help VCS organisations prepare for the potential impacts of coronavirus on their operations or finances.
