Bury Council, working alongside Bury Voluntary, Community, and Faith Alliance (VCFA), have opened a new funding programme to support local groups working to promote positive community safety, enhance community cohesion and tackle hate crime within the borough.
A new £50,000 community funding pot to help get people moving and improve their wellbeing has been launched.
Bury Council is showing its commitment to the borough’s ‘third sector’ by securing funding for the Bury Voluntary and Community Faith Alliance (VCFA).
Community and voluntary groups are invited to apply for funding to strengthen their ability to help residents with ongoing financial pressures.
Over 50? Come to a community event next Wednesday and make your voice heard – and get a free lunch!
Community groups can bid for a share of £10,000 to support them in the outstanding work they are doing to help people through the Covid-19 crisis.
New measures to boost volunteering in Bury have been announced during this, National Volunteering Week.
