Community Growing - 2nd Call for Projects

Submitted by leaderPM on Mon, 15th Mar 2010

The programme has made its second call for projects under the community growing theme. Communities and organisations are invited to put forward projects that could deliver a wide range of community growing projects within the villages of the Central Warwickshire.

The funding is available to any organisation whose project will directly benefit these communities and that meets the requirements outlined in the Local Development Strategy.

We are expecting applications for projects costing more than £5000 run by either community groups or organisations. In addition the project team would welcome smaller projects to come forward with a view to linking together to access resources or training that they need to achieve their goals.

For more details contact the programme team or read further details on the programme call page.
