Report of the Chief Grants Officer.

The Committee considered a report of the Chief Grants Officer regarding a grant previously made to the Project for Advocacy, Counselling & Education (PACE), recommends that, following the recent closure of the balance of the grant made to that charity be transferred to the Metro Centre Limited.

RESOLVED – That:

a)    the balance of the grant (i.e. £104,917) made to PACE at the September 2015 Committee be revoked;

b)    this balance be transferred to the Metro Centre Limited to deliver the outcomes of the original PACE project. This grant, to be rounded up to £105,000 over three years (3 x £35,000), will be for the salary costs of an Advocacy Worker and related costs of an advocacy service for LGBT Londoners with mental health problems.
