Shadforth Parish Council allocates grants to help groups and organisations based in the three villages to provide activities or amenities for residents. Grants of up to £300 are available.  We may occasionally consider larger grants.

The group requesting funding must be based in the Parish, but exceptions will be considered if it can be shown that the project benefits local people from Sherburn Hill, Ludworth or Shadforth.

The activities that are eligible for funding must support at least one of the aims listed below:

• Increase community connection and reduce isolation
• Improve health and wellbeing
• Improve the environment in a sustainable way.
• Increase social interaction between the villages

Applications should be submitted at least ten days before the next parish council meeting - It will then be considered at the meeting, and groups will be notified if their application has been successful within 5 working days after the meeting. Meeting dates can be found at Council > Future Meetings, or by emailing the Parish Clerk at [email protected]
