Third sector organisations across Scotland are invited to apply for a share of £1.5 million in funding to deliver short breaks projects and services that support the health and wellbeing of both carers and the people they care for.
The Creative Breaks programme, administered by Shared Care Scotland on behalf of the Scottish Government, will award 12-month grants of up to £35,000 to fund activities that enable carers and the people they care for to take a break from the daily caring routine.
Activities could include:
- overnight stays
- residential breaks
- days out
- regular activities
Small unincorporated organisations can apply for a maximum of £10,000.
The deadline for applications is 5pm on the 22nd May 2025.
