Inspiring Scotland’s Go2Play Capacity Building fund is a small fund, looking to support innovative and exciting people within the play sector who, with tailored capacity building support, could turn great ideas from a concept into a reality, positively impacting upon the lives of children and supporting the development of play in Scotland.
The Capacity Building fund aims to support individuals within Scottish charities who are bursting with enthusiasm and potential, and who recognise the tremendous contribution play makes to children’s lives. The fund provides support to develop great ideas which utilise play, free play in particular, to enhance the wellbeing of Scotland’s children. Go2Play are particularly interested in looking at proposals which have ideas around the following areas:
- supporting parents and young carers through the delivery of play;
- using play as a health improvement tool and working within the health sector;
- exploring how play can support children with additional support needs;
- supporting children’s transitions through play; and
- using play to enhance children’s physical activity.
The next deadline date is Friday 1st March 2013. You can find out more about Go2Play and the capacity building fund here.
