17/05/12 - Update - Contact us or Alastair the Vicar, if you run a volunteer group and provide a service for the community on the estate. We may be able to help with some funding. Subject to demand and panel approval. Be quick - contact and applications needed asap. Thanks
Under the Governments Community First Scheme a local grant panel has been set up to reward projects in the Croxteth Area. Funds awarded range from £500-2500 pounds.
It is aimed at groups and individuals who have a idea/scheme that will benefit the residents. If you're just getting started or brand new to all this we can help by letting you use some of our formal bits needed for the application i.e. constitution, web address, bank account and advice if you need mentoring through the process. Just get in touch if you need a lift. The forms are simple and designed to be user friendly. The priorities below are broad, this will enable funding for a large range of projects.
The ward funding priorities for this round are:
Ø Projects that reduce crime and anti social behaviour.
Ø Improve the quality of life of older people.
Ø Improve the health and wellbeing of residents.
Ø Support local people to gain employment.
First panel sits in May, applications must be submitted online by 30th April. Please see the links below for more details.
