There are still many communities in the UK that suffer from economic and social deprivation and the current economic climate may make this situation worse.
For this reason, Comic Relief has decided that £4.5 million should be available to fund projects across the UK which are addressing these issues through the 'Local Communities' programme.
The Local Communities programme will run for two years and during this time, grants of between £1000 and £10,000 will be available.
Constituted non-profit organisations in eligible areas in England can apply now for capital funding for community, biodiversity or heritage projects that benefit their local community.
Viridor Credits provides funding for a huge range of projects and will consider eligible applications on their merits and in light of the funding available.
