Launch of £4.5M Communities and Family Fund – 23 October 2011

Local projects which help families and communities give children the best start in life will benefit from new investment announced today by Education Secretary Michael Russell.

Today’s announcement sees the creation of a new Communities and Families Fund which will receive £1.5 million a year for the next three years to assist local childcare and family support work.

Examples of the work that could be supported include parenting and family support, community playgroups and crèches and community-led refurbishment of playgrounds.
