Two charity clients of Cascaid have won grants from the Community Fund.
Guideposts
Trust have been awarded a three-year grant of £173,000 by the Community Fund for
their North Warwickshire Befriending Scheme.

The three year funding will develop and implement a “Befriending Scheme” for people
with mental health needs, and their families and friends, in North Warwickshire.

Also, Contact the Elderly have been awarded a three-year grant for over £350,000
under the Strategic Grants Programme.

The grant will enable the charity to pilot five different models of service delivery
in different parts of the country. As a result they should be able to identify a
replicable and sustainable model which will enable them to effectively meet the 
needs of isolated elderly people long into the future.

Cascaid Consulting work with both Contact the Elderly and Guideposts Trust in support
of their fundraising activities. The company not only offers advice but also carries
out implementation of fundraising projects and campaigns.
