Community Participatory Budget – 2025/26
Not a grant exactly, but having a similar effect, the Parish Council has set aside £4,000 which will be used for community proposed projects. Projects will be proposed by Parishioners/Local Groups, then reviewed by the Parish Council before being presented back to the community for vote. Successful projects will then be delivered by the Parish Council in conjunction with the proposing Parishioners/Local Group.
