Hastings Borough Council Small Grants Fund
Hastings Voluntary Action is administering Hastings Borough Council's Small Grants Fund in 2010/11.
A total of £9,000 is available in grants of up to £500 to support smaller voluntary and community groups in carrying out activities that enhance the quality of Hastings and St Leonards residents’ lives and increase their involvement in the community.
Grants can be used to pay for things like new equipment, general running costs, repairs/ refurbishment, transport, newsletters, or events.
The deadline for the next round will be midday Wednesday 29th September 2010, and applicants will be informed whether they have been successful by Friday 5th November 2010.
Health Improvement Grants
Hastings & Rother Primary Care Trust have added a sum of money to the Small Grants "pot" to be distributed in 2010. A little under £5,000 is available (in addition to the HBC allocation) for projects in Hastings which contribute to the PCT's "Choosing Health" programme. Eligible groups can apply for up to £500, using the PCT application form.
These grants will be processed alongside the HBC Small Grants, sharing the the same deadlines and application / decision making process.
Application forms and guidance notes for both of the above schemes can be downloaded at the bottom of this page, or phone HVA’s Admin team on 01424 444010 to request a pack.
