Councillor community fund

Community groups including smaller grassroots groups across Lichfield District can apply for councillor funding to support projects that will have a positive impact on their area.

Each Lichfield District ward councillor has £350 to award to support:

  • Projects that provide local solutions to local needs.
  • One-off events that benefit the local community and support community resilience.
  • Current projects/activities that need a small amount of support to continue or grow.
  • Capital items (equipment, materials etc).
  • New projects and activities that need some funding to get going.
  • Projects that stimulate new community activity, such as setting up new local community events and clubs.

The Councillor Community Fund for 2025 is now closed to applications.
