Our small grants committee has met to consider applications for support, awarding five grants to local organisations totally £16,000.
Our latest recipients of grant funding for projects benefitting the community have a range of inclusive projects: Bizzy Bees Pre-school will be creating an inclusive garden and playground; Legacy of Windrush Descendants and friends (LOWD) are creating a #Windrush Photographic exhibition, and a Father’s Day family event with storytelling, art and crafts, remembrance, domino challenges, and quiz; Mile Road Allotment and Leisure Gardeners Association (MRLGA); Queen’s Park Community Organisation are purchasing and installing a waterless compostable and accessible toilet; Queen’s Park Community Organisation will be holding a fabulous community parade for the Queen’s Jubilee, and; Renhold Primary School are creating a peace garden and outdoor learning area.
Look out for updates on these projects as they progress, and congratulations to our grantees for their successful proposals.
