Community groups and voluntary organisations are being encouraged to submit their applications as the latest round of Local Partnership funding becomes available.
Funding is available for projects which will benefit local communities in Renfrewshire and align with the priorities set by the Local Partnership that has been applied to.
The deadline for applications is midnight on Thursday 13th March, with decisions being made by each Local Partnership at the subsequent meetings held in April and May.
Renfrewshire Council Leader Iain Nicolson said: “The Local Partnerships provide a brilliant opportunity for people to make a difference to where they live by discussing and finding solutions to local issues, as well as also providing funding for important local projects.
“I always look forward to seeing the ideas people can come up with so if you’re part of a community group or local organisation, then please consider applying or get in touch with the team to see how your closest Local Partnership can support you.”
There are seven Local Partnerships which local organisations can apply to which are: Renfrew; Erskine, Inchinnan, Bishopton and Langbank; The Villages; Johnstone and Linwood; Paisley North, West and Central; Paisley East; and Gleniffer.
Each has set out their local priorities and any application for funding must align with these to be considered for approval.
The application form is online and can be found on the Renfrewshire Council website, along with the priorities for each area.
