SHIRE Community Building Grant

August 7, 2013 By admin Leave a Comment

Leicestershire County Council has launched a £124,000 SHIRE Community Building Grant Fund to support Community Buildings across Leicestershire.

A maximum £6000 grant and or £4000 loan can be offered to constituted management groups who manage community buildings in Leicestershire.

There is a mix of funding available to cover both capital work – improvements for buildings – and support for business planning, advice and training – improvements in how the buildings are run.

Leicestershire County Council is looking to support costs of:

  • Major repairs, such as new roofs and floors:
  • Improvements that increaseCommunityBuildingcapacity or enable wider usage such as extensions and internal refits.
  • Acquisition of buildings (via purchase or long lease) in order to provide a community facility.
  • Construction of new Community Buildings.
  • Training and development of the committee members, volunteers and staff running Community Buildings
  • Support with strengthening governance, developing business plans and community consultation.

Applications will be considered by a Grants Panel. For applications to be considered by the next panel meeting in October, applications need to be submitted by Friday 20th of September.
