On 28 February 2020 the Grants Advisory Committee met to review the Council’s IDOX Open4Community contract renewal.
Open4Community is a software that is supplied by Idox which is available as a self-serve facility for any voluntary and community groups and Parish Councils wishing to search for funding opportunities for community projects.
The tool is available on the community pages of the SCDC website and is known as GrantGrabber. It enables users to search online for a wide range of funding sources and other information at any time of the day through the Council’s website. Anyone who visits our website and finds GrantGrabber can access the service. You do not have to be a South Cambridgeshire resident to register.
Grants Advisory Committee met on 28 February 2020 and recommended the following to the Lead Member for finance:
- The Council to increase its Service Support grant to Cambridge CVS by £4,000 and ask CCVS to pass this grant on to Hunts Forum so that it can continue to direct South Cambridgeshire residents and groups to the service at a reduced cost.
