Community
- Community Grants
The Parish Council has allocated funding in its budget to provide grants for local community groups. There are two pots of money. The first is for comparatively larger General Grants (although still relatively small), the details of which can be found in the attached documents.
The second pool, the Micro-grants, gives each councillor a grant pot of £300 (minimum grant £50) to allocate as he/she sees fit. Once again, the terms and conditions are available from the attached documents. An application form is also provided.
