Ribble Valley voluntary groups invited to apply for a grant to support charitable work

From volunteer drivers ensuring the elderly get to hospital appointments, to groups offering a warm welcome to the lonely, voluntary organisations are the beating heart of the borough.

Applications for the next raft of Ribble Valley Borough Council voluntary organisation grants are open until February 19th.

Grants are available towards the cost of projects that are sustainable and support or develop the community.

Applications will only be accepted from constituted organisations operating on a non-profit-making basis and able to provide a memorandum or articles of association indicating their voluntary or charitable status.

Full details and application packs are available at ribblevalley.gov.uk.
