Community centres in the region can apply for funding to help keep people warm this winter.
Community centres across Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight and Kent can apply for funding from Southern Water to help keep people warm this winter.
Southern Water is offering 30 grants, worth £1,000 each, to support hubs providing vital services across the region, with the cost of energy bills and essential running costs.
Now in its third year, the grants programme has already awarded funding to more than 40 community venues
Alex Willumsen, Community Partnerships and Programme Manager at Southern Water said: “We know community centres play a vital role in the lives of so many people across our region and especially during the winter, when as well as providing services for local residents, they also offer a safe space to keep warm. We are pleased to once again be able to offer these grants to help ensure they can keep their doors open and continue to support local communities.”
Online applications are now open, and close at 5pm on 31 October 2024. www.southernwater.co.uk/
