Funding Sources
Local Network Fund
The Local Network Fund is a central government backed scheme that targets money to voluntary and charitable groups working with children and young people aged 0 - 19.
The grants are targeted at community-driven initiatives helping children and young people living in poverty or deprivation or those having difficulty accessing the services or support available to others.
Those helped includes local playgroups, youth clubs, dance groups and adventure centres.
All grant applications are assessed by a panel of people from Telford and Wrekin or Shropshire, so you can be sure that they are aware of the needs of local people.
