About Us...
The Community Development Foundation is making a sum of money available, divided over three years, to the St. Crispin First panel. Local groups and individual people will be able to approach the panel to apply for some of this money. The money has to be spent for the good of the old St. Crispin Ward to help regenerate, promote a sense of ownership of the area, provide resources, projects and help new and existing groups and people to do this.
The St. Crispin First Panel is currently made up of six voluntary members who live in and love our area who came together at a meeting held to explain about the Community Development Foundation.
The old St. Crispin Ward area was targeted for inclusion in the community first project as there are certain areas of disadvantage, in terms of deprivation and an increase in benefits claimants.
As a panel, with the addition of feedback from local people and groups, plan to make the following areas a priority:
To this date, the Panel has awarded £54,641 to Community Groups in the old St Crispin's Ward.
