The Co-Operative Councils Innovation Network will be closing applications for its 2018-19 round of Policy Labs funding on Friday 16th November 2018, meaning there’s still a week remaining for CCIN members to pitch for a grant of up to £10,000:
Would you like to collaborate with other CCIN members to find co-operative solutions to the challenges facing local government? Is there a co-operative idea that you would like to run in your local area? If yes, we want to hear from you!
As a CCIN member you can apply for up to £10,000 to deliver a Policy Lab. This could be anything from co-operative approaches to tackling food poverty to initiatives that put communities back at the heart of local decision making. We are open to all ideas, the more innovative the better!
So what do we need from you? If you have an idea, please complete the expression of interest form, telling us about your idea for a Policy Lab. Deadline for receipt of funding bids is Friday 16th November 2018.
The CCIN describes itself as “a network of local authorities who are committed to reforming the way we work through building an equal partnership with local people. The network is open to all UK councils regardless of political affiliation who can demonstrate innovation and a willingness to drive forward the cooperative council agenda. We also welcome affiliate members from professional bodies, policy groups and other associations.” Individuals and organisations interested in joining the network can find details here.
