Could you be Support Fenland Communications Officer?

Support Cambridgeshire partners (CCVS and Hunts Forum) following the announcement of the partnership receiving five years of funding to operate in Fenland. They aim to fill three positions to conduct the activity throughout the district.

Support Fenland was established in 2021 when Support Cambridgeshire secured funding from Lloyds Foundation Bank to initiate a one-year trial project examining the potential structure of an infrastructure support service in Fenland. This trial yielded a report advocating for additional funding within the district to expand upon the completed work and sustain its impact. Some aspects of the pilot project have been integrated into the broader work of Support Cambridgeshire.

After several years of discussions among stakeholders and fundraising efforts, in 2024, the Lottery Community Fund granted funding for a five-year initiative to develop and implement infrastructure support throughout Fenland.

This project would not be possible without the funding received from The National Lottery Community Fund.
