Our Community & Sports Grants for 2021 opened for applications on 5th April 2021 for community, voluntary and sporting groups responding to locally identified needs within their communities under the following categories:
• Community Development Grants
• Management Assistance Grants
• Sports Development Grants
• Community Centre Re-Opening Funding

It is intended that the online application system will be open on a rolling basis during 2021 to ensure responsiveness to community needs in the current circumstances. Applications received to date have been assessed by the community development and sports teams under the following criteria:
• Impact on local community and local community involvement.
• Proven track record of project delivery and non-duplication of activities in the local area
• Sustainable & value for money projects with clear/accurate costings
