Small Core and Project Support Grants (£300 or less)
Throughout the year the Council will consider applications from local organisations for small grants of up to £300.
The application form and funding criteria are available below. Applications are considered at Full Council.
Core Grant Funding
Applications for funding in the 2021/22 financial year are now closed.
Applications for Core Grant Funding over £300 must be submitted to the Council during August each year for the Council to consider for inclusion in the following years budget at their Septmeber meeting .
Applicatons must meet the criteria and provide all requested information. Applicants are welcome to attend the meeting and may make a short presentation to Councillors to support their application.
Core Grant Funding is awarded on an annual basis, and all groups must reapply for funding each year.
Grant Support for the Local Community in 2019
Grant giving is an important function of a local authority. The grants are public money so the application and selection process is open and transparent.
For the financial year 2019/20, Ludlow Town Council received grant requests of nearly £59,000.00; and awarded grants totalling £29,260.00 . All grant giving bodies are faced with limited resources, and the number of applications and the amounts requested are increasing year on year.
It is therefore a case of doing as much as possible with limited resources, which means that some organisations may be disappointed, some may receive lesser amounts than requested, and funding for a period in excess of one year may not be possible.
