Community grants

We can provide financial support to a wide range of community groups through the Council's Community Grant Scheme.  This Scheme can deliver grants of up to £1000 for a range of activities or to promote and publicise the group in the local community.

Grant funding is also available for groups who want to coordinate local Gala Days or Fun Day events.

We also provide financial assistance to Playschemes in order that they can increase the range of activities they have available for children.
