Community Fund
The Parish Council is keen to encourage everyone to contribute to village life. Although the Parish Council has limited funds we have set up a community fund to help enhance life in our village, bringing benefits to as many Effingham residents as possible.
The Purpose of the Community Fund
The fund has been established to provide financial support for not-for-profit community projects, activities and new initiatives that will benefit some or all of the residents of the Parish of Effingham.
Eligibility
Bids may be submitted by either one or more existing local community organisations, or by groups of local residents proposing a specific project to benefit our community.
Guidance
Full guidance about the purpose of the Fund, eligibility and the application process can be viewed here:
Further guidance and assistance is available from the Clerk.
