Full details from Fareham Borough Council
Fareham Borough Council's Community Funding helps get useful projects off the ground that benefit local communities or the environment in the borough. It mainly covers one-off capital costs such as equipment and venue improvements, and sometimes short-term revenue for new projects. You can apply at any time and for any amount, but requests over £5,000 need at least equal match funding, and every applicant is asked to contribute something. Projects must be sustainable, open to the wider community and show how they have considered their climate impact. Past grants have paid for an accessible toilet and a replacement safety boat.
Check the criteria on the Fareham Community Funding pages, then talk your idea through with your ward councillor or the Leisure and Community Team (01329 236100, leisure@fareham.gov.uk). Officers will help you submit an application with your accounts and quotes.
