Full details from Community Foundation for Staffordshire & Shropshire

Small grants of £50 to £300 from individual Lichfield District councillors for grassroots activity in their ward. You can apply to more than one councillor, or to councillors in several wards if your work crosses ward boundaries, up to £900 in total. Voluntary and community groups, charities, schools and PTAs, not-for-profits and non-constituted groups with a mission statement can apply. This is an open round: applications are decided as they arrive, and the current window closes on 30 November 2026 or sooner if councillors' budgets are used up. This is not the Staffordshire County Councillor fund.

How to apply

Have your governing document, recent bank statement and safeguarding policy ready.
