Full details from Stevenage Borough Council

Stevenage Borough Council's Local Community Budget scheme lets each councillor award grants from a £2,000 budget (£2,500 for the Youth Mayor), £80,500 in total across the borough. The minimum grant is £100. Grants can contribute to a local fun day, environmental improvements, equipment, or match funding for a larger scheme or activity. Organisations need a bank account and an email address, must say which wards the project covers, and should keep receipts as monitoring may be requested within six months. The scheme is open now, with applications made online.

How to apply

Contact your local Stevenage councillor, read the Local Community Budget application guidance and complete the online Community Budget form, saying which wards your project covers.
