Seven community groups within the Caerphilly county borough are set to receive a share of almost £150,000 in grant funding.
The cash is being made available through the Community Regeneration Fund. The fund allows community and voluntary sector organisations in the county borough to bid for money for schemes that are designed to foster and enhance viable and sustainable local communities.
The latest initiatives to receive funding through the Community Regeneration Fund are:
- Aber Valley YMCA Youth & Community Project
- Britannia Community House Coordinator
- New Tredegar Adventure Play Areas
- Trinant Youth/Community Café
- Oakdale Presbyterian Church
- Ty Sign Church Hall
- Caerphilly Workmen’s Hall
“The fund enables voluntary sector organisations and community groups across our county borough to take forward initiatives they have developed which are of benefit to the entire community,” said a CCBC spokesman, “We look forward to seeing these excellent community projects coming to fruition in the near future.”
This was the fourth round of bids awarded via the Community Regeneration Fund during the 2010/11 financial year.
