FUNDING SPOTLIGHT - Local Funders
One area of funding that is sometimes overlooked can be the funding that is available locally. These funders are an important consideration for funding local branches of national organisations who can find it difficult to access national pots of funding, as well as for funding a wide variety of local groups.

Community Chest Fund for projects and activities in your community -

Pembrokeshire County Council’s Housing division has launched a new Community Chest Fund. This is a small grant that people can apply to if they would like to carry out a project or activity in their local area.

 

Who can apply?

Anyone can apply so long as your project or activity will benefit Pembrokeshire County Council tenants. (Not everyone that will benefit needs to be Council tenants as the idea is to promote a better sense of community).

•     If you are a constituted group with your own bank account then the Council will pay the money direct to you.

•     If you are a group of residents or not part of a constituted group then the Council will pay the project or activity costs on your behalf.

 

How much can we apply for?

You can apply for up to £500 for each project.  You can apply up to 4 times per year for different projects.  Application deadlines will be 30th April, 31st July, 31st October and 31st January.  There is a limited amount of money in the pot so we will judge each application on the benefits it will bring to Council tenants and the local community.

We will write to each applicant after the closing date and let you know whether your project has been successful.

 

What kind of projects or activities can we do?

You can apply to do anything that will benefit your local community or the people that live there so get your thinking caps on!!  Some examples might be a trip, event for young people, something to improve your local area like flowers or planting or equipment.
