The Sustainable Community Locality Fund provides each District Councillor with a budget to enable them to support projects and activities which will improve the community and enhance the quality of life for local residents. In 2011-2012, each Councillor has £1,000 to allocate to not-for-profit groups and organisations to deliver community projects that benefit their Ward or the wider local area.
Full details of the Fund are in the
Guidance Notes for Applicants.
If you would like to make an application to this Fund, you will need to contact your District Councillor for an application form.
