IRISS made a seed fund \u00a310,000 available for the ideas generated in the workshops during Creative care and support: Pitlochry to allow for the new initiatives to be tested. The project partners believed that a crucial element in supporting the development of new ideas is to fund local service improvement teams to undertake small testable changes that embody person-centredness. The fund was therefore set up to enable groups to test their ideas in practice and to make iterative changes as data about their idea became available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

IRISS invited members of the Pitlochry community to join the funding panel to ensure that the proposed initiatives resonated with community members as well as with project partners. Val Wallace, David Frame and Caitlin Charlton joined Fiona Johnstone and Rikke Iversholt on the panel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The funding window was open between between 29th<\/sup> April and 1st<\/sup> September 2014, with two panel meetings in June and September.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We received nine applications and granted funding to six, spending a total of \u00a39570.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
