Apply for Funds to Help Your Community

South Gloucestershire Council are offering voluntary organisations and community groups a chance to bid for money to help improve their own communities.

Applications must be for revenue projects that would benefit South Gloucestershire residents. These grants are designed for voluntary and community groups that want to develop projects and provide activities that meet local needs, such as  community safety, developing communities, enhancing the natural and built environment, children and play, learning activities, promoting equality, supporting vulnerable people, sports or  art and culture.

If you run a community group and you need help to buy publicity materials or a computer for example, then why not get in touch. Funding is mainly available for smaller projects costing no more than £3,000 in total.

Groups can apply until Monday 18 November and final decisions will be made at Area Forum  committee meetings  which take place  in February and March 2014.

More information is available online at www.southglos.gov.uk/grants  or by contacting the grants helpdesk on 01454 865865.
