Community Relations Core Funding Scheme 2007-2010

The purpose of the Scheme is to support the development of community relations work in Northern Ireland by establishing and addressing the real needs of young people to ensure that they are given every opportunity to prepare for a life in a diverse society.

The Scheme is administered by Community Relations Branch and is aimed at voluntary and non-profit making organisations that can identify how their proposed programme can contribute to the improvement of community relations between young people, in accordance with the Scheme’s objectives.

Due to the zero-based spending review being applied to all budgets in the 2008/09 financial year and beyond, the Department can only guarantee funding for 2007/08. Funding for years two and three will be provisional until the outcome of the review is known.

Applications for the Scheme closed on 22 September 2006.
