The deadline for community and voluntary groups to apply for a grant to support covid 19 vaccination take-up in Sussex is **Saturday, July 31**.

The NHS in Sussex is running a small grants scheme to improve uptake of the Covid-19 vaccine among groups with a lower than average uptake of the vaccination – these include:

- Ethnic minority and faith communities
- People living in identified areas of deprivation
- Young adults (18 and over)
- Adults with a physical, learning or sensory impairment
- The clinically vulnerable or those living with a long-term health need, eg cancer patients and people with a mental health need.

Applications are welcomed from voluntary and community sector organisations working with the above groups plus other communities with a lower than average take up of the Covid-19 vaccination. The maximum grant available is **£5,000**.
