Community Development Fund

How it works

The Community Development Fund has been set up to help fund communities working together, on local projects, which have a positive effect in their area of Herefordshire and Shropshire.

Connexus welcome applications for funds and assistance for new and existing projects that meet one or more of the following criteria:

Benefits our tenants and develops links with the wider community

Encourages interaction between different generations within the whole community

Leads to activities people want, but no one currently provides

Generates training or employment opportunities

Grants up to £5,000

Examples:

Better management of open spaces	To enhance wildlife, clean up derelict space or get people running their own community gardens
Community groups	Examples include sports teams, youth groups, parent and toddler groups to encourage new skills e.g. computer skills
Skills development for young people	Basic mechanics, basic cookery or home maintenance, as long as the skills lead to employment or improved life skills
