Levenshulme Community First Panel

 This funding programme is now closed.

£30 Million is now available to fund community projects in some of the most deprived areas of the country. People will be encouraged to give time, expertise and resources towards the projects they identify in their areas. The government will match these pound for pound, helping to stimulate local action towards meeting community needs.

Funding Priorities
Each ward has its own Community First Panel which is made up of members of your community who have come together to produce a list of priorities to improve your area. If a project fits in with these priorities then the panel may recommend it for funding.
• Helping people to find paid work with local learning hubs
• Improving communications across groups and projects in the Ward
• Making the most of existing social and leisure facilities and activities
• Encouraging environmental projects and biodiversity in the Ward
• Involving young people in positive local activities and contributing to the Youth Forum across South Manchester

You can apply for a grant from a minimum of £250 to a maximum of £2,500 per year. The programme will run until March 2015 and funds will be available during that time.
