This looks like an opportunity to improve some of our Green Spaces
I'll try and get something together over the holiday - anyone want to help?

Could we develop a bid for this money before 14th January?? For Bridge Inn Fields or for a group of sites in Ruyton XI Towns?

If you have time take a look at the website and let me know what you think? I’m back at work on 6th January.

 

Merry Christmas

Grow Wild Community Sites Funding Available (UK)

Grants of between £500 and £5,000 are available for planting and sowing native wild flowers, native plants and/or trees within the community to create a space for everyone to enjoy by giving neglected and uncared-for sites and spaces a new lease of life.

Projects must be clearly community-led, with local people, including young people, involved in the design and decision making. Projects must result in:

  • A site from which people will continue to benefit, and which can be maintained well into the future.
  • A project that gives young people a lasting sense of responsibility for the environment and the community they live in plus skills they can use in other areas of their lives.
  • An awareness of the UK's native plants, especially wild flowers, and the importance of conserving them.
  • A community willing to sustain the project, with help and support, new and strengthened partnerships, and a site that will continue to be enjoyed by the community.

Voluntary and community organisations in the UK are eligible to apply. In Scotland other charitable or third sector organisations and community councils are also eligible to apply. In England, Wales and Northern Ireland youth groups and local statutory organisations can also apply.

The deadline for applicants in England, Wales and Northern Ireland is 6 January 2014. The deadline for applicants in Scotland is 14 January 2014.
