The Somerset Community Foundation is currently accepting applications for the Oake Sunshine Fund for community activities or projects that benefit residents of the parish of Oake, including the hamlets of Heathfield, Hillcommon, Hillfarrance and Oake.

All grants are made in consultation with Oake Parish Council.
Funding Information
Grants, which they expect to average £1,000, can be made to community and voluntary organisations, registered charities, and social enterprises.
