New Regional Worklessness Fund for LAA and MAA Areas
13/11/2009
A new funding opportunity will shortly be launched by the SW RIEP Local Economy Programme. A combination of funding from the
Department of Work and Pensions (DWP) and SW RIEP will be used to assist local authorities and their partners as they work to alleviate worklessness and deliver their worklessness related LAA and MAA targets.
The funding will be used in two ways:
* each LAA or MAA area will be invited to submit a proposal to draw down funding to support projects addressing the causes and effects of worklessness in their area
* Regional Worklessness Network will be established to supplement the individual project proposals from local authorities

Hot topic - How do we reclaim the radical? | Bassac
Community organisations are increasingly agents of the state, and no longer radical champions of social justice.
Ruth Townsley, Voice and Impact manager, questions whether community organisations are losing their critical voice.
The independent voice of the sector, the voice that challenges the ‘one size fits all’ policies of government, and which calls to account statutory services, the voice which connects with marginalised groups of many types to ensure they are not bypassed by the generic central government solutions, is being eroded.
Community Cash Awards
£1 Million Available to Support Youth Projects (UK)
Young people are being given the chance to claim a share of £1 million to help tackle the dangers of drugs, crime and play a positive role in their community. The Royal Bank of Scotland Community Cash Awards will see £1 million of grants being distributed by youth charity “The Prince’s Trust” to young people who want to run community projects in some of Britain’s poorest areas. The Awards, worth £250 to £5,000, are available to disadvantaged 14 to 25-year-olds who want to transform their area and learn practical skills. Projects could range from improving local youth facilities to tackling teenage pregnancy or drug misuse. Projects must:
· be run and managed by people between the ages of 14 and 25
· clearly benefit the local community
· benefit the people running the project
· be a new or developing project.
Previous projects supported include; an amateur boxing project to give young people greater confidence; and a media project to promote community cohesion and greater understanding between the local community and asylum seekers. Applications can be made at any time.

-
In 1981, Garrison Keillor, the popular host of Minnesota Public Radio’s satirical “A Prairie Home Companion,” offered listeners a free poster of his mythical sponsor’s “Powdermilk Biscuits.” To everyone’s surprise, more than 50,000 requests poured in; the station faced a $60,000 printing bill. To avert “financial disaster,” as MPR president William Kling later recalled, the station used the back of the poster to advertise products for sale, such as a Powdermilk Biscuits T-shirt. The idea worked. “I think we netted off that poster, which was really our first catalog, $15,000 or $20,000,” Kling said. “It instantly became clear that there were things like that you could do.”1
