The Hilden Charitable Funds Summer Play Scheme is now open for applications. The Fund supports community groups and voluntary agencies with an income of less than £150,000 that run summer play schemes for children between the ages of 5 and 18 in disadvantaged communities. Supported schemes should be locally based, last between two and six weeks and have strong volunteer support. Some priority will be given to projects which show that they are inclusive of children from refugee families and have BME involvement. The closing date for applications is the 24th May 2017.

Using National Lottery funding, Arts Council England has partnered with the Baring Foundation to develop the £3 million joint fund, Celebrating Age, which will be awarded to organisations developing dedicated, high-quality programmes created by - and for – older people. Celebrating Age has been developed in response to the Taking Part survey, which shows that participation in arts and culture falls dramatically over the age of 75; with more than 2 million people in England over the age of 75 living alone, and more than a million older people speaking to a friend, neighbour or family member less than once a month. The programme will work with a range of organisations to support and engage older people in arts and cultural activities, championing social inclusion and cross-generational projects. This follows Age UK’s February summary of their Index of Wellbeing, in which engagement in creative and cultural activities are seen to make the highest contribution of 5.75 per cent to the overall wellbeing of someone over the age of 60 http://ift.tt/2lsWbaa
