Manx charities prompted to apply
One-hundred-and-fifty-thousand pounds will go to not-for-profit organisations with 'preventative' community projects - that's the offer from the Manx Lottery Trust.
This year Manx-based charities and thematic funding organisations applying for the money are asked to formulate plans to stop social problems reaching 'acute levels'.
Fifty-thousand pounds a year over a three-year period is available for research projects that carry on to apply methods informed by what works.
The organisation is a delegated partner of the Big Lottery Fund in the UK.
Member Malcolm Kelly says what kind of solutions it's looking for:-
Staffing shortages continue to impact Manx breast clinic services
'Every single aspect of prison being tested' as it remains over official capacity
No plans for IoM to introduce EU's artificial intelligence regulations
Cummal Mooar replacement proposals 'before the summer recess'
