The Carer Breather fund is a Community Solutions funding initiative to support community and voluntary sector organisations in North Lanarkshire provide ongoing breaks and activities for carers. The Fund has been in existence since 2021 and proposals are now sought for the new round of funding covering the period 2023 – 2025. 

Applications are invited for up to £55k for delivery of support over a maximum of 24 months between 1st April 2023 and 31st March 2025. (We would prefer to fund projects for the full 24 months to allow sufficient time to evaluate benefits. However, if your proposal is for a shorter period, you can still apply.)
