APPLICATIONS are now open for the next round of community area grants, which aim to give local groups and community projects a boost with government funding.
Are you a community enthusiast, community or voluntary group, town or parish council who is looking to fund a community project in Westbury? If the answer is yes, then Area Board Grants are for you.
Westbury Area Board can offer up to £5,000 of capital funding available to help provide facilities, equipment and projects that are important to the local community.
Up to £1,000 is available for small projects, or up to 50% (max. £5,000) of the cost where a project needs over £1,000.
These awards can make a big difference in helping communities get schemes and projects started, and previous recipients have included churches, sports clubs, and arts projects in the area.
