League of Friends Grant Programme Announcements
Thornbury and District League of Friends has now celebrated THREE very successful years of community grant awards and support. Since the closure of Thornbury Hospital at the end of 2018 we have also continued to support the Outpatients in St Mary Centre.
Examples of grant recipients to date: Jigsaw; Haven Memory Café; Krunch; Phase; Great Western Air Ambulance; Thornbury Community Permaculture Project; Lip-reading classes: St Mary’s School PTA.
This year’s grant-giving programme encourages local organisations to apply for a grant towards any health-related project supporting our charitable aims for which they might need our financial assistance. We welcome your interest and will consider all requests carefully.
The 2024/5 programme will operate as follows:
18 October: Grant Programme launch event (St. Mary’s Church Hall, 7.30pm);
15 November: Last date for Grant Application submission;
21 November: Announcement of Grants awarded.
In the meantime please contact Andrea by email below for further information regarding the above programme.
The last event of the year will be our AGM on Thursday 21 November (St. Mary’s Church Hall, 7.30pm).
We do need several more active members to help us put on future events, so if you are interested in assisting in ANY way please contact Andrea.
We look forward to another rewarding year of supporting health and wellbeing in our local community.
