Ward Funding

Community Ward Forums

Dear all,

Just a reminder that we are inviting applications from residents for ward forum funding for 2015-16. Residents can put forward any ideas which will improve the ward – small projects of up to £300 can be delivered by residents themselves (e.g. community notice boards, murals). Large projects will be scoped by the council to establish which orgs could deliver it or whether it can be delivered by the council itself. If you put forward an idea, you are not committing to delivering it yourselves, though you can suggest a voluntary or community organisation who could deliver it.

Our ward forum which is open to all ward residents is on 12^th September from 10 am – 11.30 am (though the meeting may be jam packed and run over slightly this time) at the Aveling Park Centre. On the agenda are deciding what are ward priorities for the year are and suggestions for ward funding . There will also be time for discussion of any other issues raised by residents.

The attached gives guidance on the process and the form, which needs to be returned to Ellen Amorina in the ward forum team. However please get in touch with the three of us if you need some help.

Many thanks and we look forward to seeing you at the ward forum

Grace, Stuart and Nadeem
