Calling all community heroes in the Dover District! Your chance to secure funding for vital local projects is here. Dover District Council launched its summer round of the Community Grants Scheme yesterday, Wednesday, April 30th, offering a total of £50,000.
Local community groups can apply for grants between £100 and £5,000 to help bring their beneficial initiatives to life. This is the first of two funding opportunities, with another £50,000 becoming available in the winter through the Cost of Living Community Impact Fund.
If your group delivers direct benefits to Dover District residents, don’t miss this opportunity to apply by the deadline of 12 noon on Wednesday, June 11th, 2025. Full terms and conditions are available on the DDC website.
For more information, please email communitygrants@dover.gov.uk, or for information or to make an application, please see www.dover.gov.uk/communitygrants
The scheme encourages and supports community-led activities that result in a direct community benefit for Dover District residents.
