Grants

Do you:

live in the NDC area?
have an idea?
belong to a group?
need funding for a project that will benefit your community?
Yes? Then apply for a Small Change Big Difference grant now!

Small Change Big Difference (SCBD) Grant Scheme has been running now for over 15 years. It is community-led and a panel of local people considers each grant application on its merits. The panel meets twice a year to offer a summer grant and a winter grant. Groups are informed of their decision quickly and projects can get started.

The grants panel has representatives from each of the six NDC areas (see below).

Fincham Jenny Turner & Carol Clarke
Finch House Eve Middleton & Susan Duffy
