Funding for local community projects up for grabs

Do you have a great idea for a community initiative that will benefit local people but just needs the funds to get it off the ground?

Have you already got a successful community project that you’d like to expand or develop?

If the answer is yes, then the Wing and Ivinghoe Community Board wants to hear from you.

Community boards are two-way partnerships between the council and local communities. The essence of our vision is summed up in our simple strapline – Local voices, local choices, local action. By working together, we can truly bring change and improvement to our area, directly addressing your concerns and priorities at a local level.

We have funds available to support projects that meet the agreed priorities. This includes anything from support for older people to health and wellbeing, transport and youth initiatives. Of particular focus this year are initiatives to improve the environment and supporting economic recovery.

If you have an idea for funding or are just keen to get involved in an action group looking at how to tackle local issues, get in touch with us at: [email protected]
