Thank you for your project application idea, the project idea clearly hopes to address local community need. This project was taken to East Area Committee for consideration within the funding and criteria for EIP area funding. Following committee and Executive Councillor consideration this project was unfortunately not approved. The key reason for this was that the EIP programme was oversubscribed and the proposal was therefore not within the programme budget. However the project clearly has merit and it would be applicable for future funding rounds, though it might improve chances of funding if Project Development Unit Officers were involved in any future application submission.
