As one of your Borough Councillors I have a grant fund for the 2016/17 civic year of £2,400 which I can allocate to local organisations.
What can the grant be used for? The fund is to support local, small scale community projects such as those which bring cultural, sporting, recreational, health, environmental, heritage, community safety, crime reduction or educational benefits to the local community.
The fund cannot be used to support items which should be funded by mainstream public expenditure such as highways or footways. Grants should also not support political or directly religious activity.
I usually award no more than £200 to each project but sometimes Cllr Wright will agree to “top up” from his fund.
I have already agreed to requests from the Town Twinning Group and to the Village Fete and bearing in mind I also represent Hartlip and Newington you will understand that the earlier you apply the better chance of a grant.
