At our Fun Day this summer we opened a new round of our small grants fund ‘Together We Can’ for Cadwyn tenants to apply for up to £150 to support them into training, education, employment or to deliver a community project. So far, we have received five new applications – all for very different things from helping with business start up to supporting a new craft group for tenants.
Patricia was one of the first to receive funding from Together We Can;
“I was awarded Together We Can funding to pay for fees to register my children at nursery so that I could enrol in a Health and Social Care course.
The course has shown me how to work professionally with patients and I have grown in confidence. It has allowed me to attend college even though I’m a single mum with no childcare options. This will definitely help me get my dream job in the future.”
If you are interested in finding out more about Together We Can please get in touch. We would especially like to hear from you if you and your neighbours have a community activity or project idea!
