Please find some links below to information for any third sector organisation affected by the Covid-19. This will be relevant to those branches that currently employ a member of staff and/ or whose cashflow has been impacted by the onset of the pandemic.

http://thirdforcenews.org.uk/tfn-news/20m-Covid-19-support-fund-launched – Support fund for third-sector organisations impacted by Covid-19. The form is straightforward to complete and will be especially useful for those branches who employ a member of staff who aren’t being covered by an existing grant funder throughout this period.
https://www.tnlcommunityfund.org.uk/funding/programmes/national-lottery-awards-for-all-scotland – National Lottery Awards for All have extended their deadlines on the Awards for All fund and will try and prioritise those organisations impacted by Covid-19 in getting a quicker decision on the grant. They have also allowed any organisation who currently have, or has had in the past year, a grant for something else.
SDS hopes that these links above help in some way however, if any of our branches need any further support or advice during this period please don’t hesitate to get in touch. All our officers are working (subject to annual leave) and available to be contacted.
Best regards
Mark & Jen
