Entries open for £30k charity grant

The government is inviting Island charities to apply for a £30,000 grant towards its work.

The Global Development Education and Awareness Grant is awarded to organisations that teach and raise awareness of global development issues to the Manx population.

The successful candidate - or candidates if there's a partnership - will work with the government to provide strategic advice to the Cabinet Office Political Group on global matters which relate to the Isle of Man.

Interest charities should submit applications through the government website before Thursday, April 25.
