The programme provides funding for York St John University academics to work with VCSE organisations within Yorkshire and Humberside. Through this process, we aim to work together to produce research that is co-designed, relevant and impactful. By research, they mean the generating of new knowledge or understanding about the world. This might include generating evidence about impact, reviewing best-practice, engaging with participants/stakeholders, co-designing new activities, mapping case studies, conducting organisations reviews and more.
Grant Amounts: Typically range from £5,000 to £10,000 per project.
VCSE organizations with a track record of community engagement and delivery within Yorkshire and Humberside.
The program is particularly focused on areas like Scarborough, Whitby, Filey, and Bridlington, which are home to coastal and rural populations.
Priority is given to organizations that are community-led, have significant community participation, and are typically smaller, local groups.
