A message from Cllr Gary Parker:

Your Charlton Ward councillors are pleased to announce the launch of the Charlton Ward Budget programme for 2016-18.

Your ward councillors will be accepting applications from 3rd May 2016 onwards. In line with the council decision, the decision of the ward councillors regarding any grants awarded is final.

We are trying to fund as many organisations as possible from a budget of £30,000 and we particularly want to encourage small organisations to apply using this application form.

Some background on ward budgets

Greenwich council’s ward budget scheme was announced in October 2015; at the last count 15 applications have been approved so far across the borough, including some funds to improve Hornfair Park’s pet cemetery.

Have you got an idea for a scheme that would benefit Charlton ward? Let us know in the comments below!
