Grants from Madeley Parish Council

If you know of, or are involved in a voluntary group or organisation you could be eligible to receive grant funding from Madeley Parish Council. If you can show that your group helps local people in some way, then you can apply. Funding is available for many different things – buying new equipment, taking members on a trip, training volunteers, basically any good idea that will help your group can be considered.

There is a simple application form to be filled in, available from the Parish Office (Jubilee House, 74 High Street, Madeley). Or telephone Kath on 567280 for more information.
