Organisations in Dorchester are being encouraged to apply for grants for community projects.
Dorchester Town Council are urging community groups to apply before the end of February for a grant of between £50 and £500.
This includes but is not limited to groups that support vulnerable people, art/ culture, young people, reducing climate change, sport, heritage, outdoor spaces, health and wellbeing.
A spokesperson for Dorchester Town Council said: "The town council will be awarding grants for community projects in early March so please do submit an application by the end of February 2024 if you have a project, event or activity that you need help with.
"Funding applications can be for one-off costs such as equipment, training, or promotional material as long as the activities benefit the residents of Dorchester"
The Council will usually only consider grant applications for specific projects rather than a contribution towards ongoing or revenue costs.
Full application guidance notes are included with the grant application form.
An application form can be found in the grants section of its website at www.dorchester-tc.gov.uk/Services/Grants
