Notice Description
We are making available up to a maximum of PS4.5 million in early years grant funding to VCS organisations for an 24-month period (up to PS2.5m from April'23 - Mar'24 and up to PS2.5m from Apr'24 - Mar'25) to help deliver activities in support of one or more of the above early years disadvantage targeted priorities.
