Community Grants
Consultation on Community Resources Unit Funding Programme
Liverpool City Council's Community Resources Unit currently provides nearly £4 million a year to voluntary and community sector organisations to deliver local projects for the benefit of local residents.
The Funding Framework is currently being updated for 2011-2014. This includes a number of changes to guide how funds will be invested in the future. The Community Resources Unit would like to consult with anyone who wants to have their say on these proposals. This includes local residents, voluntary and community sector representatives, councillors, council officers and anyone else with an interest in the future of the programme.
GVA Grimley is managing the consultation process on behalf of the City Council. To obtain views from as many people as possible who may be affected by the proposed changes, an online survey has been set up which can be completed by clicking on the following link:

The survey takes no longer than 30 minutes to complete and will be open until 18 March 2010. If you would like to request the survey in an alternative format please send an email with your name and contact details to:
