Antimicrobial resistance and infection prevention community engagement fund: apply
This grant provides funding for third-sector organisations to engage with communities to support the development of infection prevention and antimicrobial resistance strategies.
Overview
This fund has now closed for applications.
This fund supports community engagement activities that help shape Scotland's policies and strategies on:
- infection prevention and control (IPC)
- antimicrobial resistance (AMR).
You can apply if you are a charity, social enterprise or community organisation.
Successful organisations will recruit and host a community voice and engagement co-ordinator. The co-ordinator will work with communities to gather and share insights that support national health strategies, campaigns and action plans.
A particular focus will be on engaging people and groups whose views are not often represented in policy development.
One grant of up to £100,000 will be awarded. Funding will cover the costs of recruiting a co-ordinator and supporting their engagement activities.
Projects should start in August 2026, with all funding spent by March 2027.
