Do you have a project idea that could benefit residents of the Ashley ward?
The Ashley Community First Grant Panel is made up of eight residents from across the Ashley ward who will be awarding over £50,000 in grants until March 2015.
The Ashley Community First Grant Panel will support Ashley focused projects that address one or more of the following priorities:
1. Events/activities/sports, which bring together people from different cultural and all other backgrounds who would not normally come together.
2. Sharing skills and knowledge
projects, visits, and skill swaps. Activities which help people share skills and or/knowledge particularly between groups who would not otherwise come together
3. Activities that address a poor quality environment such as litter, graffiti tagging, fly-posting, run down/disused buildings, pavements, public places and green space.
Application Deadline: 9:00am, Monday 1st October 2012
Community First Grant contributions – £250 minimum / £2,000 maximum (Projects must be “match funded” which can include costs for volunteer time. This means the minimum project value will be at least £500.)
