Funding for the project will come from a variety of sources. We have bid for grants towards the costs of the scheme, and have most recently been awarded £475,000 from the Big Lottery Community Buildings Fund (Stage 2). Other funding has already been secured towards the development of the project from ERDF and Big lottery (Stage 1), New Charter Hosuing Trust amongst others. Further funding towards the construction is being sought from a variety of sources.
We are actively raising funds locally and welcome the community's support.
