Decision:

RESOLVED:

That members agreed up to £5,000 from the community grants

Budget, to Yeovil4Family for the provision of on-going important family support programs across Yeovil.

Reason:

To consider the request for a community grant from Yeovil4Family.

(Voting: unanimous)

Minutes:

The Income and Opportunities Manager presented the report and confirmed to members that the grant was for 17% of the overall cost towards the provision of the ongoing important family support programme.

He considered this an excellent programme that has been fully endorsed and supported by the SSDC Welfare & Careline Officer and that although there was secured long term funding from September 2018 this grant was to help fund the gap between end of April and September 2018.

The Income and Opportunities Manager also updated members that since the report had been published he was confident the 27% funding gap highlighted within his report had now been secured. His recommendation was therefore to support the request for a grant of up to £5000 as set out in his report.

There being no debate it was then proposed and subsequently seconded to award up to £5000 to Yeovil4Family for the provision of on-going important family support programs across Yeovil. On being put to the vote this was carried unanimously.
