Neighbourhood Watch Network: Funding for Schemes The Trustees of Neighbourhood Watch Network have set aside funds toward a 6-month trial community grants programme for local groups delivering or setting up Neighbourhood Watch activities within their communities.
Funds can be used for one-off project work or core costs. The size of grants range between £100 - £500. Groups can only hold one grant at a time, and can only hold one grant in each financial year. There are limited funds so not every application will be accepted.
Further details are available from their website: |
