June 2010 ‘WEST NORFOLK SAYS NO!! TO DOMESTIC ABUSE’ We are organising a Forum so organisational representatives and interested individuals can hear first-hand how Domestic Abuse affects the individual and those close to them, and how the statutory sector, voluntary agencies and specific charities provide services to this group of people. The organisers hope the outcome of the morning, for all attending, will be a clearer understanding of how services are provided in West Norfolk, the areas of strength of these services and any aspects of weakness or possibly even complete gaps – where future action could be taken. Please give serious considerations to attending this event, there will be no charge and your support will be greatly valued. The event is taking place on Saturday 19th June from 9.30am to 1.30pm at St. Edmunds Community Foundation School, Kilham’s Way, King’s Lynn, Norfolk, PE30 2HU.

* Small Grants Scheme - this is for projects no larger than £50,000, which is seeking funding of between £2,000-£15,000. It is intended to provide funding - either match or 100% - to ensure prompt delivery of a project. * Main Grants Scheme - this is where proportional funding will apply. The maximum project size which can be considered is £250,000. The minimum contribution WREN will make in this scheme is £15,001 or no less than 20% of the total project cost, and the maximum contribution is £50,000 or 85% of the total project cost. Example #1 - a new play area is costing £75,000, therefore the maximum contribution WREN will consider is £50,000, as 85% is £63,750 - above the maximum grant level. Example #2 - an extension to a church hall will cost £130,000, therefore the minimum contribution WREN will consider is £26,000 (20%). There are also changes to the funding which WREN will consider in 'new build' - no longer able to offer funding to the structure or fabric, but instead, they are willing to fund the internal finishings, fixtures and fittings. They also no longer consider funding single or restricted sport facilities. Within West Norfolk, the areas they are still accepting applications from, remain within 10miles of the Blackborough End and Feltwell landfill sites. These provide a wide coverage, from Dersingham in the north, to Great Massingham, Castle Acre and Swaffham in the east, down to Thetford and back across to Downham Market. There is another landfill site at March which provides a 10-mile radius of coverage to Upwell. The full WREN funding policy is available for download from their website, www.wren.org.uk, along with all WREN documentation. Timescales for the current year are :- For more details please contact Sarah Gosling, Grant Manager for Norfolk Cambridgeshire, Suffolk, Essex, via telephone on 01953 714987 or email at sarah.gosling@wren.org.uk.
