Community Grant Scheme (Broadland)

Broadland District Council

Description

Local district councillors propose applications on behalf of community groups, which are then reviewed by a Community Grant Scheme panel.

Amount

£1,000 to £15,000 per project; £50,000 available annually

Deadline

Rolling / no fixed deadline

Eligibility summary

  • Available in: England.
  • Open to individuals — not restricted to businesses.
  • Most relevant to: Charity & Nonprofit.
Notes
Confirmed via the council's own southnorfolkandbroadland.gov.uk pages. The 2026 round opened 1 April with a deadline of 7 June (panel met July 2026 to allocate funding); the council's own pages indicate a further application opportunity later in the year, so treat as an annually recurring scheme rather than fully closed. Re-verified in August 2026: the council's own page now confirms 'the deadline for applications to the Community Grant Scheme has now passed' and directs enquiries about future rounds to the communities team — consistent with the annually-recurring model, no next-round date published yet.
Requirement
Community group or organisation in Broadland with a project that enhances local facilities or improves residents' quality of life; applications must be made on the group's behalf by their local district councillor.

Want help with this application?

This one is usually simple enough to do yourself using the free official link below — but if you'd rather have help, we're building relationships with vetted professionals and can let you know if that becomes available.

Some of the organisations we may connect you with pay us a referral fee if you use their service. This never affects which listings you see in the directory. No live partner is confirmed yet for this listing.

You can also do this yourself for free via the official source
