Coun John Campion, responsible for localism and communities, said: “We are really pleased to continue supporting activities in the community in this way.”

Anyone interested in applying for a grant should visit worcestershire.gov.uk/voluntary and follow the link for ‘VCS Grants’. Application forms are available from gwills@worcestershire.gov.uk or 01905 766864.

The deadline for applications is 4pm on Friday, October 28.
