Deadline: 3-Oct-22
The Hafren Dyfrdwy is currently seeking applications for its Community Fund.
Hafren Dyfrdwy seeks to fund projects that have a genuine community need and stand out as having a real impact on one of these key elements of community wellbeing – with favourability shown to projects that ideally lie within a ‘sweet spot’ that incorporates all three.
Funding Information
Amount: £2,000 and £10,000
What they can fund?
- You can apply for a grant if your organisation is not for profit and you have a governing document.
-
Applications can be made by organisations including:
- Local Authority or Parish Council
- Charitable incorporated organisation (CIO) / foundation CIO
- Registered Company (limited by guarantee)
- Registered Charity
- Volunteer / community group
- Foundation school, college or academy
- Community Amateur Sports Club (CASC)
The proposed project must be located in the Hafren Dyfrdwy region and the community it is benefitting must be Hafren Dyfrdwy customers.
What they can't fund?
Unfortunately, they can’t fund:
- Individuals
- Any organisation that is legally able to make a profit (e.g. limited liability partnerships, limited companies, sole traders)
- Work that is too closely linked to their core services (e.g. new or replacement water or waste pipes, new water supplies, or new connections)
- Any Hafren Dyfrdwy costs or improvements to Hafren Dyfrdwy or Severn Trent owned property/land (they can’t allow Community Fund money to come back into any of the Severn Trent group businesses)
- General organisation or current project costs – your application must be for a new project
- Projects where they are NOT the majority funder
- Projects with a political or religious purpose
- Projects not within the Hafren Dyfrdwy region
- Projects that aren’t sustainable (e.g. the project would need a further grant to continue beyond their investment)
- Short term/one off events
- Retrospective costs – Project/work that has already taken place
- Any organisation that cannot demonstrate appropriate governance
- Any project that is to the detriment of Hafren Dyfrdwy and its interests (e.g. projects that use excessive volumes of mains water, that use mains water irresponsibly, or that do not use water efficient alternatives where possible)
- Projects that have already received funding from them
Eligibility Criteria
To be eligible for a grant from the Hafren Dyfrdwy Community Fund, the organisation must be a registered not for profit, and the project you would like funding for must benefit Hafren Dyfrdwy customers.
