Five grants reaching £6,400 have been made to community groups supported by ºÚÁÏÍøÕ¾ Borough Council.

They include awards for a new youth football club, children’s dance, and an international festival at The Hawth.

Awards of up to £2,500 are available from the Small Grants scheme to help local voluntary and community groups improve wellbeing in ºÚÁÏÍøÕ¾.

We have awarded five additional small grants enabling more community support and activities in ºÚÁÏÍøÕ¾. We hope everyone involved enjoys taking part in these activities, and those who access new support find it helpful. We have more applications submitted for a final round this financial year and will announce those grants soon.
