Scottish Recovery Consortium

Recovery Seed Fund

The Scottish Recovery Consortium (SRC) Recovery Seed Fund aims to support new and unconstituted Lived Experience recovery groups and organisations with an initial award of up to £5,000 to support start-up and running costs. The fund is designed to develop and support substance and/or behaviour Lived Experience recovery organisations to trial, grow and develop their ideas, services or products and build organisational capacity. Additional support will also be provided to help these groups and organisations become sustainable, skilled and independent. This is a fantastic opportunity for those wanting to take their group to the next level so they can continue supporting recovery in their community. Applicants must be substance and/or behaviour Lived Experience Recovery Organisations or voluntary groups (LERO) that have autonomy or independence, are led by understanding, knowledgeable staff or volunteers, with people of lived experience of recovery running the group. The organisation or group must be less than 12 months old or unconstituted if active for longer, have an income of less than £30,000 per year, and deliver activities in Scotland.
