The Edinburgh & Lothians Health Foundation (ELHF) is launching its 2016/17 General Grants Programme, designed to create “healthier, longer lives for the people of Scotland.” The Foundation’s Trustees are inviting proposals for projects which will improve the health of local people and particularly encourage applications for projects that demonstrate partnership working.

Applications should be submitted by Sunday 13th December 2015 and applicants will be advised in February 2016 if their project is recommended for funding. Grants will made to successful applicants in April 2016.

Further information on the Grants Programmes is available at www.elhf.co.uk including a directory of previously funded projects. Please note we provide funding on the basis of additionality so projects should be above-and-beyond current NHS Lothian core provision.
