I think this particular fund looks difficult because of the figures mentioned but I don't know any details but so are many of the funding opportunities available.
One thing is certain though, if you don't apply you definitely wont get and fortunately we have a lot of people in our borough who don't give up easily.
I think the figure secured by community groups that work with the parks department is over £4 million in the last 5 or 6 years now.
St Mary's football club secured well over a £1 million for the the Heys football fields project.
I know of other recent successful funding bids for the area but I cant name them as I am not sure if they have been publicly announced yet.
