Full details from Welsh Government
The Welsh Government's Community Facilities Programme is a capital grant scheme for improving community facilities that are useful to, and well used by, local people. Small grants run from £5,000 to £25,000, and larger grants from £25,001 to £300,000. Projects are scored on fit with the programme, community involvement, match funding, work with users, capacity, community benefit, tackling inequality, sustainability and climate and nature action. It is a rolling programme with no closing date. Small grant decisions aim to come within 60 working days, and larger grants go through an expression of interest then a full application.
Read the guidance and FAQs on the Community Facilities Programme page. For £5,000 to £25,000, complete the small grant form and email it signed by two signatories with your latest accounts; for larger grants, submit the expression of interest form first.
