Neighbourhood budget

Each county councillor has a budget of £19,400 that they can allocate to projects in the local community. County Councillors also have funding for projects linked to the 'Towns and Villages' agenda.

You have to apply for funding.

How to apply

If you have a project idea you will need to discuss this with and get the support of your local County Councillor before an application can be considered.

See Your Councillors for a list of  councillor contact details and information on the local projects they have supported with their Neighbourhood Budget.
