We are pleased to announce that the Warwickshire County Council Councillor Grant Fund 2016-17 for Rugby Town East (Eastlands, Paddox and Hillmorton) is now open for applications - the closing date is Friday 30 September 2016.

The Grant Fund is aimed at community and voluntary organisations and provides funding for small-scale projects that meet local priorities. Councillors Jerry Roodhouse and Richard Dodd are the County Councillors for the Eastlands, Paddox and Hillmorton. Funding decisions will be based on a scored application process and the local priorities identified for the area.
