BRAW Application Guidance
Applications for 2017 BRAW Funding is now open!
BRAW aims to promote and highlight lower risk drinking messages to support and encourage people to make positive choices about
alcohol use.
BRAW Week will take place on 19th – 23rd June 2017. Constituted
community groups, services and schools in Renfrewshire are invited to
apply for funding.
Your organisation can bid for funding (up to a maximum £500) to
allow you to host an event or activity within your organisation during
BRAW week. What you do is up to you, all we ask is that you develop
your BRAW activity to meet with our objectives (listed below) and that
you use BRAW branding on all publicity related to the event.
You could host an alcohol free disco, develop a group-work
programme about alcohol, produce a DVD highlighting positive
choices about alcohol, commission alcohol training, host a BRAW
BBQ… get creative, the choice is yours!
