Funding News

The Eric Liddell Centre is awaiting formal confirmation of its funding from the City of Edinburgh Council. Current indications are that funding will remain at the same level as last year with no cuts to our day care service or the Ca(i)re programme. Carers may be interested to know that funding for the Ca(i)re Programme is being moved from Children and Family Services to the Health and Social Care department. We would like to thank Children and Family Services for their support in previous years. We would also like to thank all the people who contacted the council about the need for our services during the budget discussions.

The Ca(i)re Programme Needs Your Help

According to this article in the Edinburgh Evening News:

The Eric Liddell Centre's Ca(i)re Programme, which supports carers across Edinburgh, could lose 100% of its council funding.

• Do you have any views on this?
• Has the Ca(i)re Programme assisted you?
• Do you think it should be maintained?
