GambleAware has launched two major financing programs aimed at helping people maintain their recovery from gambling harm and help those affected by the cost of living crisis.
The Aftercare Fund Program and Community Resilience Fund aim to promote charitable activities throughout the UK to help people at risk of harm from gambling and reduce health inequality in the most underprivileged communities. is.
Gamble Aware, the organization responsible for implementing national strategies to reduce gambling harm, is helping more people who have recovered from gambling harm rebuild their lives through the £ 2 Million Aftercare Funding Program (AFP). I am requesting an application for a project that provides support services. Not only current partners, but also new charities and organizations can apply for this fund. Small organizations and pilot projects can be awarded up to £ 150,000, and large organizations and projects can apply for up to £ 350,000.
The £ 1 Million Community Resilience Fund (CRF) aims to provide short-term funding to help organizations respond quickly to the cost of living crisis. New partners and charities can apply for up to £ 100,000 in 12 months.
Anna Hargrave, Chief Commissioning Officer at Gamble Aware, said:
“Many people have been successful in treating and supporting gambling harm, but little is known about how to ensure recovery. Aftercare funding programs are at this stage of long-term recovery. Assist some people and meet the need for long-term structured aftercare programs.
“The Community Resilience Fund helps organizations address specific needs within the community and the inequality they experience.”
