Autumn Voices invites outline proposals from individuals in Scotland for projects which help to build partnerships in local and online communities by involving older people (those aged 60+) of local organisations in creative activities.
The kinds of local organisations we have in mind include care homes, U3A, Men’s Shed, reading groups, arts clubs, Dementia Support Club, and Grey Matters Club.
We are seeking proposals which match Autumn Voices’ aim of celebrating creativity in later life; involve, engage and empower older people; promote equality, diversity and inclusion;
are cost-effective; take place online and / or face-to-face; can feasibly be carried out.
Up to three outline proposals will be selected. Successful applicants will receive £400 to develop a detailed proposal, with a view to Autumn Voices applying for funding for the project.
This call-out echoes a similar one we did in late 2021, which resulted in Autumn Voices securing funding for three projects: Voice Eye Hand, Tales of Birnam & Dunkeld, and Here We Are!
