Answer

Annually, my Department allocates £4.7m to the voluntary and community sector. Funding to individual organisations is listed on the Government Funder’s Database and can be accessed at www.volcomgrantsni.gov.uk.

This funding is provided to regional organisations, many of which have offices, or provide services, in Londonderry. Information about organisations operating in East Londonderry is not readily available.
