Grants
The Parish Council makes application forms available each year from the beginning of September to the end of October. The Grants Committee then meets in November to agree the applications. These have to be approved at the Parish Council meeting, usually in December, and organisations are normally informed of the Council's decision in January. The cheques are drawn at the Parish Council meeting in June.
