The Our Manchester Funds Programme Management Team would like to thank everyone who provided comments as part of the consultation on the Older Peoples Fund – either through the on-line survey, public events or through other channels.
The Team have now reviewed all the feedback provided and, where they are able to, are incorporating this into the key fund documents being produced (prospectus, application form and guidance) ready for the launch.
The feedback from the consultation told the Team that the aims, priorities and objectives generally make sense and focused more on language, clarification about the neighbourhoods and expectations of the Lead applicant when working in partnership with others. The consultation report attached includes the results of the consultation and a 'You said, We did' update. The Team have also attached the more detailed and updated frequently asked questions.
The fund also has a new title, the Older Peoples Neighbourhood Support (OPeNS) Fund.
As always, if you have any further questions please contact the team.
