Community Grants

Daventry Town Council would like to help voluntary organisations within Daventry turn their ideas into reality with the aid of a Daventry Town Council Community Grant.

Awards of up to £1000 are available to local community groups and organisations whose services, activities or events support and benefit the community. So if you are one of the following we could help:

• A Daventry Town based charity, club or association serving the community as a whole.
• Citizen(s) of Daventry requesting a grant to aid with a project/or event, which will be for the benefit of the local community.

If you have an idea but not sure if you would be eligible simply call 01327 301246 within office hours and have an informal chat.

Our Funding and Support Policy sets out the principles and criteria that governs how we award community grants, who can apply and what can and cannot be funded.

If you would like to make an application for a Community Grant, you must complete and return the application form to the office or alternatively email rfo@daventrytowncouncil.gov.uk.

If you have any questions or require any assistance please contact the office or email rfo@daventrytowncouncil.gov.uk.
