Live Here Love Here Small Grants Scheme now open

The Live Here Love Here Small Grants Scheme takes a fresh approach to improving our local environment and building a sense of pride in our local communities.

Launched by Local Councils, Northern Ireland Housing Executive, McDonald's UK and Coca-Cola and Keep Northern Beautiful, the Small Grants Scheme provides support to volunteer projects that:

• Improve the health and wellbeing of communities whilst helping to improve and/or maintain public spaces.
• Use innovative ways to reduce littering and dog fouling where you live.
• Improve the way your local environment is looked after, whether urban, rural or coastal.
• Contribute to the development of civic pride within a community with a focus on environmental improvement.

Grants are available from £500 to £5,000 and are open to volunteer and community groups, all school and third level education organisations, youth groups and sports clubs undertaking civic pride projects throughout Northern Ireland.
