Devon County Council: Locality Budgets
Applications can now be made to Devon County Council’s Locality Budgets 2024/25, with funding available for projects that benefit local communities in Devon. Each County Councillor in Devon has a Locality Budget grant allocation of £8,000 that they can use to respond to local needs in this financial year (April 2024 to March 2025)
Applications are accepted from constituted and not-for-private-profit voluntary, community and social enterprise (VCSE) sector groups and organisations, town and parish councils, charities or businesses (that have an eligible sponsor), or a combination of such groups working together. Refer to the website for more details about who can apply and exclusions.
If you are interested in applying for a contribution from the Locality Budgets please approach your County Councillor in the first instance. You can find contact details for your County Councillor here: Your Councillors – Democracy in Devon
Funding to be spent or allocated by 31 March 2025.
