Community Ownership Fund

Early day motion 73, tabled 26 July 2024 by Claire Hanna (Social Democratic and Labour Party). Signed by 14 members.

That this House notes that the Community Ownership Fund was introduced by the last Government to support voluntary and community groups; further notes that current Community Ownership funding will come to an end in March 2025; acknowledges that many organisations and projects are reliant on this funding due to the withdrawal of EU structural funds and face uncertainty about what comes next; and calls on the new Government to provide reassurance and to outline plans for the continuation or replacement of the fund as soon as possible to allow organisations to plan ahead.

Signatures by party: Labour 4, Plaid Cymru 4, Green 2, DUP 1, Independent 1, Labour/Co-operative 1, Social Democratic and Labour Party 1.
