Kingsbrook and Cauldwell BIG Local are delighted to relaunch the Small Community Grants scheme.
What kind of projects can you apply for funding for?
The fund is aimed at supporting locally based or operating not for profit community groups that will be able to meet the four priorities of the new plan launched in May 2022:
- Future Generations – Youngs People, Activities, Leadership, Learning
- Parks – Environment, Health, Leisure, Facilities
- Environment and Green Spaces – Street Scene, Climate, Growing
- Community – Community Hubs, Community Activities, Community Cohesion, Community Learning.
There is also an additional small fund for new ideas and innovative projects which will improve life for those living in our community. A full copy of the plan can be found on our website www.yourfundyoursay.info We are particularly keen to hear about initiatives to support the cost of living crisis.
If you are an individual who is planning an activity/event which will benefit the community and also fit with the BIG Local priorities listed, it may still be possible for us to support you through our Community grants scheme. Please do contact the project manager on info@yourfundyoursay.info or by phone on 07939 934687 to have a discussion regarding your idea.
Projects must be delivered in the Kingsbrook and Cauldwell BIG Local area, for the residents of that area. Please see Map for boundaries of the area.
