Happy New Year and best wishes for a happy and healthy 2019!
We were rather tight on the budget with our Heritage Lottery Fund application and not able to furnish the proposed new community room as we would have preferred, so thought that the Stockport Local Fund may be able to help out with this. As part of a £1 million fund to help Stockport people and community groups, we hope it can help enhance the HLF project, and form the basis for an ongoing local partnership.
The application is for the installation of a hearing loop system, and folding chairs and tables with trollies to flexibly furnish the much anticipated new community room. It would complement the proposed HLF project, and help to kick start a partnership with Age UK Stockport to host meetings/events aimed at reducing feelings of lonliness and social isolation in local people.
If you think the Stockport Fund may be able to help your community project, have a look at their website here – this round has just finished (Jan 19), but further application rounds will be open during the year…
