Community Grants Fund Info
The Community Grants Fund is designed to support pieces of work or
projects which fall outside mainstream service delivery, but which
clearly benefit local people in the Western Edinburgh area. A Grant
of up to £5,000 is available to constituted community groups with
an open membership.
The Neighbourhood
Partnership assesses applications on the basis of the priorities
set out in the Local Neighbourhood Plan 2008 - 11. These are:
1 Promoting safer communities for all
residents.
2 Make our environment cleaner and more
attractive while promoting sustainable
lifestyles and development.
3 Develop a better range of activities and
resources for young people in the area.
4 Improving public transport networks.
5 Promoting healthy living and lifestyles.
The Partnership is
keen to make sure that local people and organisations know about
these grants and how to apply, so that we can make the best use of
this resource for the local area.
If you would like
more information on the Community Grants Fund including application
forms, please contact Jim Conner, Partnership Development Officer
