Who can apply
Voluntary, “not for profit” organisations, associations, groups and clubs, or consortiums/partnerships which have a strong community focus for their activities. The expectation is that most of the funding will go to groups with an income of under £1 million, to reflect the investment in grassroots organisations, but organisations with a bigger income may be considered.
