Community Grant Scheme

Applications for the Community Grant Scheme are now open for 2025. The deadline for submitting applications is Sunday 31 August 2025.

There will be many community initiatives which will require larger amounts of funding. Broadland's Community Grant Scheme (CGS) is provided to support and fund these initiatives.

Local District Councillors are responsible for considering and proposing applications between £1,000 and £15,000 from the CGS fund.

Applications will be considered by the CGS Panel; who will meet up to two times per year to consider requests for CGS applications, but may allocate the full budget at the first.

Please contact your local district councillor, who will make an application for funding on your behalf.
