In 2009 the department completed a Strategic Investment Review of voluntary sector funding. As a result of this, the Section 64 general scheme of grants, which provided core funding to organisations, was replaced by the Innovation, Excellence and Service Development Fund. The purpose of the change was to make funding to the voluntary sector fairer and more transparent. It also means that organisations become more independent and less reliant upon statutory funding.
In 2010-11 Alcohol Concern received a grant of £300,000 to support the transition towards self-funding status.
Alcohol Concern made an application to the 2011-12 Innovation, Excellence and Service Development Fund but this was unsuccessful. The organisation has been provided with feedback to explain this decision. The competition for funding was intense, with over 350 applications for this scheme.
The grants paid to Alcohol Concern between 2007-08 and the current financial year are in the following table:
| Funding year | 2007-08 | 2008-09 | 2009-10 | 2010-11 | 2011-12 |
| Core Funding | £400,000.00 | £400,000.00 | £400,000.00 | £0.00 | £0.00 |
| Project: Developing self-help groups for volunteers | £0.00 | £50,000.00 | £50,000.00 | £0.00 | £0.00 |
