Grant Policies

Eligibility

Are you a group or organisation helping people in need, hardship or distress who are resident in the area of benefit?

Area of Benefit

Trowbridge and the villages of Southwick, North Bradley, Yarnbrook, West Ashton, Hilperton and Staverton. Your organisation may cover a much wider area of the county, so you will need to show that the money given to you will be used only for the people in the area of benefit.

Provisos

We may want to visit you to see how your group carries out its charitable work.
Grants cannot be given for upkeep of village halls, religious purposes, training or educations purposes
Grants will not be given directly to individuals in need.
