Annual Community Grant Guidance Notes

Projects we are unlikely to support include:

• applications for commercial/profit making organisations
• applications from town/parish councils
• projects that are deemed to be in place of statutory bodies
• national charities, unless the project is solely for the benefit of local residents
• projects promoting political or religious beliefs
• funding for individuals
• projects that have already taken place
• projects that do not benefit or are not based in the borough of Welwyn Hatfield
• applications if the funding request is for 100% of the salary of an individual (applications for contribution to a salary for a new post on a fixed term contract will be considered)
• projects that were funded in the previous 24 months (unless agreed with the chair of theboard prior to submission)
• funding requests for contributions to capital costs (such as new buildings)
• projects that are requesting funding for temporary buildings or structures
• projects that directly conflict with the council’s priorities
• organisations that are publically funded such as schools and universities if they are requesting funding for projects for a select group of young people (we will consider projects benefitting the wider community).
