West Cheltenham Partnership
At a glance
Key takeaways
- The latest annual report shows only £320 paid out, and that total may include grants to individuals, so a small, modest request is the realistic size to plan for.
- Its themes of poverty relief, education and training, environmental preservation, physical and mental health, and leisure and community facilities are broad, and its own programmes, Dreamscheme for primary-age young people and the West Cheltenham Community Pantry, show the kind of work it backs.
- Its stated priority is West Cheltenham, including Hesters Way, Springbank, St Marks and St Peters, so an organisation working outside that area should check fit with the contact shown before applying.
- No application process is published, so contact the Partnership first, and the annual report does not say how competitive its giving is or when it considers requests.
