This grants programme aims to assist organisations with projects that help to achieve the Borough Council's priorities and contribute to other key strategies.

RESOLVED –

1.    That the applications and allocations for grants be approved for the amounts indicated in paragraphs 2.5 to 2.18 of the report, as recommended by the Community Grants Assessment Panel;

2.    That the Director of Finance, Policy and Development, in conjunction with the Portfolio Holder for Culture, Leisure and Tourism, be delegated authority to approve a request from the Trinity Theatre to vary their capital and revenue support grant; and

3.    That Capital Grants be no longer offered annually but on a specific basis, to allow the recipient to be self sufficient without further council funding.
