The Councillor Local Community Fund is designed to help empower local residents to be active in their community and made easy for groups to apply.

How it works

  • Each Councillor has £300 to award to support local projects and activities which can make a positive impact in their area. Awards can be made from a minimum of £50 pounds to a maximum of £300.
  • There is an option for applications to be made to more than one Councillor in a ward or across wards up to a maximum award of £900.

  • Any community groups can apply. Unlike most funding schemes groups do not need to be formally constituted
