Grant Funding Programmes

Frequently Asked Questions for this Service

Question: Does the council make grants to local voluntary and community organisations?

Answer: Whenever the council wants to commission local services by making grants, a Prospectus is published on the iwight.com website. Applicants can then make bids for grants in return for delivering the outcomes that are set out in the Prospectus. This is a competitive process and grants are made to the organisations that make the best offers. - Related Link
