Successful campaigns must finish by 31 January 2027; that is not the application deadline.

Requirements to check

Key requirements:

  • The council contribution is limited to 40% of the crowdfunding target.
  • The £15,000 ceiling applies to eligible organisations; other applicant types have lower limits.

Eligible community culture and sport projects must meet the current Lancashire Culture and Sport Fund criteria and use the Spacehive crowdfunding process. Applicant type determines the pledge ceiling, and the 40% contribution limit still applies.
