Funding available for Northamptonshire groups to boost parks, gardens and biodiversity
Charities and community groups in Northamptonshire are being offered help from National Grid Electricity Distribution to create or improve green spaces that can be enjoyed by communities.
Support is available to develop parks, gardens, open spaces, raised flowerbeds and living walls in public areas.
National Grid Electricity Distribution’s Community Matters Fund is also offering money to improve accessibility to green spaces by creating paths, ramps and seating.
Projects boosting biodiversity, such as bee hives, ponds, tree, hedge and wildflower planting will be supported too.
The Community Matters Fund is offering grants up to £5,000 for registered charities, while unregistered organisations can apply for up to £2,000. Applications close at 5pm on Friday June 26.
