There has been significant demand for 2015/16 Central Good Relations Funding. Funding is being released in phases and to date over £1.7 million has been approved and allocated to priority projects. We intend to release further funding soon and successful groups will be contacted when decisions have been made.
It should be noted that groups based in both rural and urban areas may have participants taking part in their projects from outside the area.
