Health, Wellbeing & Cost of Living Grants

In 2022, Cheshire and Wirral Partnership, NHS Cheshire and Merseyside, Cheshire East Council and the VCFSE sector worked collaboratively to design and deliver a grants programme aimed at improving the physical and mental wellbeing of the local population and reduce health inequalities.
In addition to health and wellbeing grants, Cheshire East Council announced a cost-of-living grant, funded through the UK Shared Prosperity Government Levelling Up Fund.

The Cheshire East Council grant brochure shows grants that have recently been allocated through community grants,  and includes the following:-

• Cost of Living – support for the VCFSE to respond to the needs of their beneficiaries through interventions, advice and support around the impact of Cost of Living crisis
