Gamlingay Guardians Community Warden Scheme update PDF 220 KB
Minutes:
The Committee noted that Gamlingay Guardians
had struggled during Covid because there had been a difficulty to
attract members, partially due to a positive volunteer response
during Covid.
It was commented that the group was
restructuring their service to enable them to lower their costs and
become more attractive to clients. It was noted that as such, the
Guardians no longer required the money that had been ringfenced for
them at the previous meeting of the Grants Advisory Committee on
Friday 30 April 2021.
It was commented that while these schemes are
often aimed at older people, that they are there to support all
vulnerable people.
Grants Advisory Committee recommended to the
Lead Member for Finance, the following:
- to continue to
support the service in accordance with the new proposal, i.e. fewer
client contacts, reduced fees (and with no requirement for
additional funding); and
- to re-assign the c.
£8k funding that was ring-fenced for the Gamlingay Guardians
Community Warden Scheme and use it instead towards the agreed
increase in Service Support Grants for 2022-25 (along with the
remaining unspent Mobile Warden Scheme funding agreed at GAC 30
April 2021).
