NEST TPG Programme

Tender description

Capital City Partnership on behalf of City of Edinburgh Council (Business Growth and Inclusion) would like to invite applications for the Network of Employability Support and Training (NEST) grants programme. The grants will fund work which supports people experiencing poverty and that are looking to progress towards work or in work. The ultimate aim of this work is to reduce the impact that poverty has on Edinburgh’s citizens and to empower people through fair employment. All applications should make reference to the Strategic Skills Pipeline – a copy of the Pipeline can be found here. Organisations can make several applications, but each should be for a separate and distinct project and must aim to support a different cohort of clients. A separate application form must be completed for each proposal. The maximum which can be applied for in each application is GBP 75,000 per annum. Capital City Partnership will support you with your application and can give feedback on draft applications if they are submitted by 1st October. Completed applications must be submitted electronically to craig.dutton@capitalcitypartnership.org by NOON, Friday 15th October 2021. Late submissions will not be accepted.
