THE VALUE of SMALL GRANTS a Review by Peter Minet Trust and United St Saviour’S Charity March 2018 INTRODUCTION
THE VALUE OF SMALL GRANTS A review by Peter Minet Trust and United St Saviour’s Charity March 2018 INTRODUCTION United St Saviour’s Charity (UStSC) and Peter Minet Trust (Peter Minet) have been awarding small grants in South London for many years. In 2017 they joined forces to commission Rocket Science to review their grants programmes to better understand the impact that they make and to help the two organisations think about how to develop them for the future. Peter Minet supports organisations in Lambeth and Southwark with grants of up to £5,000. UStSC only works in Southwark and has two grants programmes; a ‘Community Investment’ programme’ of over £5,000 for larger strategic projects and a ‘Community Engagement’ programme of small grants. Only the latter was the subject of this review which looked back at the past three years of grant-making. Measuring the impact of small grants is inherently challenging and it was never the intention to produce a full-blown evaluation. However, both organisations set out to understand whether relatively small grants were of value to the groups and charities they fund. This document summarises the main findings of the review. In many ways it is a celebration of the two programmes and the difference that they make. 2 INVESTMENT OVER THREE YEARS COMBINED United St Saviour’s Charity 321 206 GRANTS AWARDED GRANTS £440,366 INVESTED 149 DIFFERENT ORGANISATIONS FUNDED £853,873 TOTAL INVESTMENT Peter Minet Trust 115 GRANTS AWARDED 243 £413,507 INVESTED DIFFERENT ORGANISATIONS 94 DIFFERENT ORGANISATIONS FUNDED -

Celebrating 20 Years of the Camberwell Arts Festival
Celebrating 20 years of the Camberwell Arts Festival CATALOGUING CAMBERWELL 1 This year, the Camberwell Arts Festival celebrated its 20th birthday. From its infancy, the festival has brought life to little known locations, enabling new, emerging and established artists to take to the streets and create a narrative about the area we live and work in. And in 2014 it was all about the number 20! From pubs to parks, cafes to crypts, the whole of Camberwell becomes the gallery and performance space, inviting residents and visitors alike to explore the area in new and unexpected ways. As Camberwell evolves, so too does the organisation: Camberwell Arts prides itself on placing partnership at its heart. This year’s festival and the catalogue showcase this: from our work with Southwark Pensioners to the inclusion of Literary Kitchen, we’re open to all – and are committed to maintaining this going forward. As we look to the next 20 years, we’ve expanded our board and are casting the net even wider during these challenging times for the arts. Planning is already underway for the 2015 Festival, which will take place from 20–28 June; what happens during that week is as much up to you as it is to us! To find out more, submit an idea or get involved visit us at: www.camberwellarts.org.uk Michael Armstrong, Chair of Camberwell Arts 2 NEIGHBOURPUD WATCH TICKETS PLEASE! Eating our way around Camberwell seemed Margaret Thatcher was wrong to knock too good to be true – and Miss Cakehead’s people who travel on buses. -

The ALGG SPG document is guidance that is supplementary to London Plan policies. While it does not have the same formal development plan status as these policies, it has been formally adopted by the Mayor as supplementary guidance under his powers under the Greater London Authority Act 1999 (as amended). Adoption followed a period of public consultation, and a summary of the comments received and the responses of the Mayor to those comments is available on the Greater London Authority website. It will therefore be a material consideration in drawing up development plan documents and in taking planning decisions. The All London Green Grid SPG was developed in parallel with the area frameworks it can be found at the following link: http://www. london.gov.uk/publication/all-london-green-grid-spg . -

Many of our family history resources were produced by the parish vestries and date from the 1600s to 1900. At that time the vast majority of this area was not part of London and you will find references to locations from Bankside to Camberwell as being in the County of Surrey. The three Metropolitan Boroughs of Southwark, Bermondsey and Camberwell were formed in 1900 and were part of the County of London. In 1965 these three boroughs merged to become the London Borough of Southwark, one of the 32 boroughs that now form Greater London.
