The Scottish Government announced Year 5 of the Communities Mental Health and Wellbeing Fund for Adults in March 2025.
The Fund will continue to support community-based initiatives – new and existing – that promote and improve mental health and wellbeing by addressing social isolation, loneliness, suicide prevention and tackling poverty and inequality. The Fund is focused on supporting initiatives that will enable them to drive a shift across mental health to ensure a focus on prevention and early intervention. The Fund also seeks to respond to the ongoing cost-of-living crisis.
Since the Fund launched in 2021, ACVO TSI has distributed over £2.5 million of grant funding across the city. These grants – large and small – have supported 297 community-based initiatives that are promoting and improving mental health and wellbeing across Aberdeen.
ACVO TSI is again delighted to be managing the distribution of £554,377.00 in Year 5 of the Fund across Aberdeen City.
Please note that the application process has changed for Year 5, so it is important that you read all the guidance information prior to completing your application.
