Funding for remote rural communities

Communities that are not connected to the Mains Gas Grid will be able to apply for grants of up to £5,000 through the Calor Rural Community Fund from the 20th March onwards. Projects that could apply for funding could be anything from redecorating community centres or village halls; to new equipment for youth clubs, sports teams or scout groups; etc.
Projects will be subject to a popular vote. Projects that receive the most votes on Calor Rural Community Fund website will be shortlisted then reviewed by a panel of judges, who will select the winning projects for funding.

In 2018 Calor is offering three levels of funding to suit projects of different sizes:
•Up to £1,000
•Up to £2,500
•Up to £5,000
The 20 projects in the £1,000 category and the 10 projects in both the £2,500 and £5,000 with the most votes will go through to the finals. The closing date for applications will be the 30th April 2018. Read more below:
