Harlow Council will shortly be advertising for local organisations to apply for grants from its Small Grants Budget.

The council's Grants Panel today approved the advertisement, which will appear in the local press. Organisations which apply will need to meet the council's criteria. The maximum grant available to any one organisation is £500, and the Grants Panel will meet in August to consider the applications.

For further information or an application form, applicants should email Angela Street or call her on 01279 446102.

Cllrs Lesley Rideout and Lorna Spenceley are the Liberal Democrat members of the Grants Panel.
