COMMUNITY groups and voluntary organisations in and around Alcester, will have their last chance this month to apply for £58,000 worth of funding from Warwickshire County Council.

The funding is being divided between county councillors, who will each be able to allocate no more than two grants adding up to £1,000, while additional grants of as much as £3,000 will be made available to one-off projects through the Community Development Fund.

Applications must be made first by approaching local councillors, and they must be received no later than Thursday, September 29.

For more information on the Community Development Fund, contact Amanda Wilson-Patterson at the Stratford area office, who will be able to help with information, advice and support for the application process.

She can be reached on 01789 260135 or by email to stratford@warwickshire.gov.uk.

Application forms are also available to download from www.warwickshire.gov.uk/stratfordarea.
