Calder Ward Forum grants relaunched for 2015 - 16

Thursday, 19 March 2015

The Council has made a total of £5,000 available for each ward to be spent by the end of March 2016. The fund must be spent on grants for activities and projects that benefit Calder Ward.

It must be a community group that applies, and that group must have a constitution (or rules), a bank account in the name of the organisation, and a safeguarding policy if they work with children, young people or vulnerable adults.

The maximum grant per application is £500.

Your application form should be sent to the Neighbourhood Team for the panel to consider and it must meet one of the following priorities :

• Priority 1 – The grant must be used to provide some form of benefit to the community – if you're not sure, please contact us first.
• Priority 2 – we welcome applications from new groups who have not applied for funding before or from groups who have exhausted other funding streams.
• Priority 3 – we welcome applications from groups working with or looking to benefit hard to reach sections of the community.

For an online form email wardforums@calderdale.gov.uk, or ring Steve Martin, on 01422 392317.

Closing dates for applications for this round will be Friday the 29th of May before midday.
