A £57m UK government package to support charities and communities groups is not a replacement for EU funding that came to an end two days ago, says Mencap_NI
Mencap NI director Grainne Close says there is a "smokescreen" around a replacement package for previous EU fundingto support charities and communities groups "is not a replacement" for EU funding that came to an end two days ago, the charity Mencap has said.
"We're going to save some jobs but we're going to have to reduce the service because it's not like-for-like... we're still losing about 50% and we're going to have to find that from somewhere so there'll be all eyes on central government.
"The priorities of the ESF was to focus on social inclusion, it was working with the most marginalised and disadvantaged in our communities, the UK Shared Prosperity Fund does not do that," Ms Close said.
