Mobile Warden Scheme Expansion - Grant Applications PDF 146 KB Minutes: Grants Advisory Committee were advised that to determine demand across the District an age cut-off of 70 years + was applied, however, it was noted that the schemes were open to all residents regardless of age as criteria was based more on vulnerability and need.
It was noted that long term funding was a concern for parishes setting up mobile warden schemes once the initial two-year funding from the district council expires. It was remarked that villages were concerned about increased costs particularly where schemes include more than one parish and if a partner village were to withdraw from the scheme. It was noted that the Council would attempt to assist should this occur, potentially integrating the village into a separate scheme. It was also noted that the scheme would expand the Mobile Warden Schemes to an additional 20 parishes.
It was agreed that Lesley McFarlane would draw up a map to illustrate mobile warden coverage.
The Grants Advisory Committee was asked to review the report and agree to award grant funding to the parishes of Gamlingay, Longstanton and the joint scheme for Lolworth and Fen Drayton.
With regard to the grant awards, Grants Advisory Committee recommended to the Lead Cabinet Member for Finance that:
· The grant amount be awarded to each of the parishes in full.
With regard to the surplus grant funding, Grants Advisory Committee recommended to the Lead Cabinet Member for Finance to:
· Run a second round of grant funding to attract additional parishes to set up new schemes;
As such, it was agreed that Lesley McFarlane would bring a report back to the Committee detailing the best way to do this.
It was also agreed for Lesley McFarlane to bring a report back to Committee on the impact of Covid-19 on the costs for Mobile Warden Schemes
