I know you said that you tried Community Foundation but was it the "Grassroots" grant run by Merseyside Community Foundation who also run the Lancashire Community Foundation ? "Grassroots" have a fund which gives £5,000=00 over 3 years. Have you tried "It's Your Community" which is a grant of £1,000=00 in conjunction with O2 ? Is your group a member of CVS (Council for Voluntary Services) who often have ways and means of suggesting funding...PM me for the number if you are not a member. Thwaites Brewery Community Fund is another contact. Have you contacted LCC Environmental Grants? good luck Laurie
