Capital grants available for community and voluntary groups

South Glos Council's capital grants scheme are now open for bids, with a deadline of 11 June for applications to be submitted.

Voluntary and community groups in South Gloucestershire can apply for help with the cost of capital projects such as buying or enhancing buildings or purchasing new equipment, machinery or vehicles.

A total of £125,000 is available to projects that benefit South Gloucestershire residents, with funding mainly available to smaller projects costing no more than £3,000. Decisions on funding will be made at the Area Forum in September.

Further information on the scheme is available at www.southglos.gov.uk/communitygrants.
