Additional Restrictions Grant (ARG)
Well done to Heather Lockwood of the Essex group for not taking no for an answer. Initially her local authority, Chelmsford, refused applications for the ARG from ADIs but Heather and her colleagues appealed and got the decision overturned with an agreement to pay it. Not only that, but neighbouring authorities Brentwood & Maldon are doing the same. Heather says it’s worth applying and appealing if you get refused.
Heather went on to say – the ADINJC are to be thanked as without lots of talk on the online seminar etc I wouldn’t have known about it.
