Older people from across Glasgow benefitted
Glasgow Third Sector Transformation Fund
Impact Funding Partners managed this fund on behalf of Glasgow City Health and Social Care Partnership form 2012 – 2017.
The Glasgow Third Sector Transformation Fund was established to support projects in delivering services to older people and their carers in their own homes and communities.
The aim of the fund was to improve the health of older people and/or their families and carers in order to reduce demand on public services. Third sector projects worked directly with and for old people, their families and/or carers.
Over the 5 years, the needs and scope of funding required became more extensive than older people. In conjunction with FMR Research, Impact Funding Partners commissioned extensive research, resulting in a full evaluation report compiled and submitted to the funder in 2017.
This led to the fund evolving into what is now the Wellbeing for longer in Glasgow Fund, which encompasses projects offering activities and support for all Adults aged 16yr+. This fund is managed by Impact Funding Partners, information on this fund can be found here.
