Trustees are reviewing the way they give grant aid and community support through the Foundation in response to a low level of qualifying applications received since the programme was launched in 2009. Managing Trustee, James Kearns, said, "We will be focussing the review on meeting the needs of smaller organisations, who are looking to support specific training and developmental needs for young people and adult volunteers, and are considering launching a new affordable community support training programme".
The Trustee will be discussing plans at their next meeting in May and will publish the results in June or July.
