Redundancy Support Grants

Descriptions

The City of Edinburgh Council’s Business Growth and Inclusion department is now accepting applications to their Redundancy Support Fund (PACE) Grants Programme. Awards will be made for up to 12 months subject to performance. Applications are invited for provision of services which will support people at risk of redundancy or who have been made redundant as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. Services will support individuals to retain employment, move into new employment or reskill. Organisations can make several applications, but each should be for a separate and distinct project. All applications should make reference to the Strategic Skills Pipeline – a copy of the Pipeline can be found here. The total funding available is GBP 160,000 over the lifetime of the grant programme. Grants applications should not exceed GBP 75,000 and should be based on a ratio of GBP 1,000 per client engagement.
