Grants 

Our Grants Scheme is designed to support local community organisations, charities, Social Enterprises and Community Interest Companies delivering services, projects and events within Penrith.

We will consider one application per organisation each financial year (1st April to 31st March) but will not consider applications from individuals.

It is recommended that applicants thoroughly read the Council’s Grants Scheme before making an application and where necessary contact the Council for advice.

The Council will not fund salaries, hospitality, religious organisations (except for non-religious activities), core school expenditure or projects with party political links.
