Strath groups urged to apply for small grants in Magic Little Grants Fund from Localgiving

Localgiving has launched its latest Magic Little Grants Fund, distributing £500 a time to local charities and community groups with an annual income under £250,000.

Groups supporting and inspiring people to participate in sports or exercise, with the primary aim of improving the physical health of participants qualify.

It's all funded by the players of People’s Postcode Lottery, an award of £550,000, making it the biggest funds to date. The funding comes from Postcode Community Trust, a grant giving charity funded entirely by players of the lottery.

New groups can register with Localgiving and apply for a grant at http://grants.localgiving.org/pct

Deadline for applications is midnight, November 30.
