Our community grants scheme is designed to support local community organisations, charities and CICs delivering services within Knutsford. We will consider one application per organisation each financial year (1st April to 31st March) but will not consider applications from individuals.
It is recommended that applicants thoroughly read the council’s grants policy before making an application and where necessary contact the Town Clerk for advice on your application.
The council will not fund salaries, hospitality, religious organisations (except for non-religious activities), core school expenditure or projects with party political links.
