Community grants now available
Are you an established community group with a fantastic project idea that could benefit the local community in Wrose?
Wrose Parish Council is committed to fostering community-driven initiatives that enhance the well-being and quality of life for all residents. To support this the Council has established 2 grant schemes to support community initiatives run by local not for profit community organisations.
Whether your group has a small-scale project in mind or a larger venture, these grants can provide the financial boost you need to turn your ideas into reality.
Our first scheme, the community grant scheme, offers awards of up to £500 to fund projects that will have a positive impact on Wrose residents. This scheme is ideal for smaller initiatives, such as, community garden projects, or providing equipment for use by a community group.
The second type of grant, the community sponsorship grant, makes awards typically between £500 and £2000. These grants are for community groups with more ambitious projects. This scheme is designed to support larger-scale initiatives that aim to bring about significant change or improvements within the community. Examples of projects that may qualify for this grant include, organising a community not-for profit festival, or undertaking extensive environmental conservation work.
While these grant schemes present excellent opportunities for community groups, certain eligibility criteria and conditions apply. In addition only a limited number of grants can be awarded each year. Further details of the grant conditions and how to apply can be found on the Council’s website in the Wrose Parish Council grant policy document (which can be found in the registers and policies section).
Wrose Parish Council understands the importance of empowering local groups and believes these grants can make a significant difference in achieving your goals. We eagerly await your project proposals and look forward to partnering with you to create a vibrant and thriving local community. Together, we can make a difference!
