CalMac Community Fund information sessions

Wednesday 21st October

CalMac Ferries plan to hold online information sessions for groups who may be interested in applying to the CalMac Community Fund. This year the CalMac Community Fund aims to support non-profit organisations registered to the islands and ports we serve which engage and deliver services for the most vulnerable and disadvantaged people. We will seek to support services that tackle social isolation, mental health, loneliness and or poverty.

We will consider applications that address other social issues relative to your community if the application can demonstrate the need. Organisations can apply for an award between £500 and £2,000. Applications will open from Thursday 1 October 2020 and close Monday 30 November 2020.

 Sessions will take place on Wednesday 21 October at either 12:30 or 17:00.

If you wish to join an online information session CalMac will send you a link to Microsoft Teams. Please email communityfund@calmac.co.uk in advance with:
