Monitoring and transparency
If your application is successful a Monitoring Form will be sent to you for completion at the same time as you receive your funding.
An Annual Devolved Budget Report for each ward will be published annually and will include:
- A breakdown of projects / activities supported
- Amounts allocated
- The sector funded (i.e. VCF, public sector, etc.)
- The ward priorities the projects have contributed to
- Which communities of identity have been supported
Ward Budget funds are public money and so the same rules apply as do to any other Council spending. All spending is subject to the Council’s Constitution, CSOs and Financial regulations, as well as appropriate, scrutiny and accountability.
Failure to complete and return the monitoring form by the due date will result in the Council initiating a process to request the grant being returned. If you have any queries, please contact us at neighbourhoods@rotherham.gov.uk
