FINANCIAL GRANT SCHEME



LEWES TOWN COUNCIL

 

FINANCIAL GRANTS

 

Applications are invited

 

Lewes Town Council offers limited financial grants to qualifying organizations.

The aim of our financial grants scheme is to help promote a vibrant and active local community.  The Council recognises and supports the valuable contribution made by  many voluntary groups and  organizations (often very small) in the fields of arts; sport; culture; social care; services for children and young adults;  services for the elderly and people with disabilities; and many others who contribute to the well being of the local community.

We will consider financial support for community organisations working for the benefit of residents, with the intention of improving the range of services and activities in the town.

Applications are accepted at any time throughout the year, and can be made for help towards a special project, or the everyday running costs of your organization.

Applications for amounts over £2000 are assessed only once each year, before the end of September, and any awards are individually identified within our budget plan and included in the Council Tax precept for the following year.

There is a Grants Fund agreed within our annual budget for us to give away during the year as single grants under £2000, and these are disbursed four times each year.

There is a limited budget each year for grants and the amounts requested often exceed the fund available.  It is important that applicants provide a detailed picture of their project or of the activities of their organisation within the town.
