Do you have an idea for improving your community?
Are you involved in a local group or volunteer on a management committee?
The Community Development and Capacity Building Team can offer assistance and support to find funding that can help you. We can work with you to explore your ideas, develop a plan and identify local or national funders. Maybe you just need a little help to fill in a funding application form that you already have. We can support you through the application process and, if needed, help you to work towards your aims by reviewing and reporting your progress with you at regular intervals.
We work with over 60 local groups and organisations and have a lot of experience in busting the jargon around funding. We help groups with single requests for as little as £100, as well as larger community organisations who need funding for staff and running costs.
Our local Community Education Workers are based all over the council area. To contact someone in your area please see Your Local Contact| page for further information.
If you'd like to talk to one of our staff about any aspect of funding, please phone 01324 504436.
