º£½Ç»»ÆÞ Community Foundation (WCF) is launching a new funding programme to support local communities through small grants, positively impacting all areas of the county.
The aim of the Strengthening º£½Ç»»ÆÞ Fund is to support disadvantaged local communities continuing to experience the ongoing effects of cost-of-living, by delivering help for a wide range of projects via charities, community groups and social enterprises. Whilst inviting applications from throughout º£½Ç»»ÆÞ, we particularly welcome applications for projects where deprivation is greatest.
WCF has a total of £200,00 to distribute across the county.
The fund is offered in partnership with º£½Ç»»ÆÞ County Council (WCC) which is providing match funding on a 1 to 1 basis.
