The date for the second round of funding for the Armed Forces Community Covenant has been brought forward by the Ministry of Defence.  The deadline for groups and organisations to apply for funding is now 22 May 2012.  This replaces the previous deadline of June.

The aim of the Community Covenant Grant Scheme is to deliver financial support to projects at the local level, which strengthen the ties or the mutual understanding between members of the Armed Forces Community and the wider community in which they live and to support veterans.

All applications should be sent to Hayley Gibb, Headquarters Edinburgh Garrison, The Castle, Edinburgh, EH1 2YT by 22 May 2012.
