The Wellbeing Fund aims to support organisations across the third sector that are providing important services to people who are most affected by the coronavirus pandemic. This forms part of a £350 million package from the Scottish Government.  Aimed at the Third Sector, proposed activity should be focused on:

  • Working with at-risk groups with new needs that are not currently met by existing services 
  • Providing vital wellbeing support on issues such as mental health, personal finances, employment, housing, food, physical health and home life. 
  • Immediate and emerging forms of support.
