Introduction

The Community Facilities Fund provides capital grants to develop and improve community facilities and assets, promoting greater interaction and more activities in communities.

Community facilities are physical space and place provided by a range of organisations. They provide for the health, welfare, social, educational, spiritual, recreational, leisure and cultural needs of the community. These include village halls, community centres, play parks and green spaces.

This funding is for community projects that will support priorities within our Corporate Plan and help us to achieve our vision that:

"West Lindsey is a great place to be where people, businesses and communities can thrive and reach their potential."

Projects funded will align to one or more of our funding themes:

  • Arts and Culture
  • Community Development
  • Crime and Disorder Prevention
  • Digital Connectivity
  • Economic Development
  • Education and Skills
  • Environment
  • Health and Wellbeing
  • Heritage
  • Regeneration
  • Sport and Physical Activity
  • Transport and Connectivity
