How much can I apply for?

We haven’t set a limit on what you can apply for but that’s not say it’s a bottomless pot!

If you’ve got an idea for something that meets our priorities for Town or Skircoat wards, give us call to discuss. Even if we’re not able to fund all your project we might be able to help in other ways.
