Grants available to support dementia awareness projects

Denbighshire Voluntary Services Council (DVSC) has launched a new round of Dementia Aware Denbighshire Funding.

A total of £10,000 is available to support activities and initiatives spreading dementia awareness throughout the county. 

The grant, which has been enabled by funding from the Welsh Government Integrated Care Fund, will give voluntary and community groups, Third Sector organisations, social enterprises and small businesses with less than 100 employees who operate in Denbighshire the chance to apply for up to £2,000.

Individuals can also apply for grants up to £250. 

Grants are available for events, activities and training sessions, which can raise awareness about dementia and encourage people to turn awareness into action and improvement in their communities. 

 “We are looking forward to learn about new initiatives here in Denbighshire that can help support individuals and families living with Dementia," explained Rebecca Bowcott, DVSC Community Wellbeing Officer."

DVSC is operating a rapid grant decision-making process with applications being considered on a rolling basis until funds are disbursed. 

If you want advice and guidance, contact DVSC’s bilingual Community Support team member, Rhys@dvsc.co.uk or call him on 01824 702 441.
