“We know how important modest amounts of funding can be for getting local projects up and running so are pleased to be able to relaunch our Community Grants funding round,” said Woodsmith Foundation Grants and Programmes Manager Gemme Sciré.

“We love assessing this grant round and reading about all the great ideas and ambitions communities and organisations have.

“It’s a great opportunity to take action on climate change, set up a new activity, buy equipment, improve your local environment or deliver a project to support the health and wellbeing of local people.”
