Final Small Grants Round
Capacity Building Fund
The Newcastle Partnership and the Neighbourhood Renewal Fund (NRF) have given money to the West End Community Development Consortium (WECDC) to run a Development Fund. The purpose of the fund is to strengthen community and voluntary sector groups in the Inner West area (Benwell and Scotswood, Elswick, and part of the, Westgate and Wingrove wards). If these groups are stronger, they are better able to get involved in the regeneration of the West End of Newcastle.
