Who can apply?
Only residents living on the Greenwich Peninsula can apply for the funding. The funding is available for social clubs that are inclusive and open to all residents from all tenures. All funded projects will need to demonstrate the following:
Promote positive community spirit
Have a social benefit for the wider Greenwich Peninsula community
Clubs that are aimed at bringing people together to residents to improve social cohesion and increase connections between residents
Clubs that reduce loneliness
Clubs that teach a new skill or promote skills sharing
Residents can apply for funding to cover project activities, and staffing, running costs related to the project, as well as the purchase of any equipment you may need. Funds can be used to fund a whole project, or to pay for elements of a wider project. We can fund a mix of project activities, operating costs, organisational development, and capital costs.
