Changes to Area Board Grant Applications – 2012/13

Update from Stephen Harris, Community Area Manager (South West Wiltshire): “There have been some changes to the Community Area Grants system for 2012/13; for the first time small grants of up to £350 are available to any group for projects that are aimed at building a stronger community…. Standard grants are still available as before…. Awards will be made at each area board meeting as funds allow. The maximum award is £5,000 for which projects would need to have match-funding in place; however, for smaller applications up to £1,000 there is no match funding requirement. Please remember the application deadline is usually around 4 weeks before meetings.  We work closely with the Charities Information Bureau who can help you identify other suitable sources of funding for your projects.”
