12th March – 11am-12pm – Online
This session will introduce our funding programme and answer any questions. Our grants funding is a rolling process with a 6-week turnaround from application to decision and will be open for applications until early 2026 – all part of our Grow, Cook, Eat programme, supporting people and communities in North Northamptonshire to grow, cook and eat healthily.
Our pot of ‘Seed Funding’ is for community driven projects with a focus on growing, cooking and eating. Applicants are invited to apply for grants of up to £3,000, with all successful applicants being allocated a specialist member of the Groundwork Northamptonshire team to offer advice throughout.
We will also hear from a Grow Cook Eat grant recipient about their project and how the funding and support has assisted them.
