Last Grants Panel Meeting September 2010
Grab a Grassroots Grant
If you belong to, or know of, a small voluntary
and neighbourhood group who could benefit from a grant of
between £250 to £5000 then read on…..
EBCC will be working in partnership with
Ealing Community and Voluntary Service, Southall Community
Alliance and Acton Community Foundation, to make Grassroots
Grants available to a range of local groups including charities,
voluntary groups and neighbourhood initiatives, with an annual
turnover of less than thirty thousand pounds a year.
Funding for capital items such as IT equipment,
furniture and office equipment, websites and newsletters can
all be considered. We will also consider revenue costs such
as contribution towards staff salaries, training, rent and
funding of activities such as play sessions, advice sessions,
community days etc.
The Grassroots Grants programme is unable
to fund statutory organisations such as local authorities,
primary care trusts and schools or ‘arms-length’
organisations funded or part-funded by them. Nor is it able
to fund commercial ventures, or political or religious activity.
It can however fund activity being carried out by religious
groups for community benefit such as youth clubs or parent
and toddler groups.
