Grant Application Form – Barry Town Council

Company

This field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.

Barry Town Council offers a number of grant programmes available for either community organisations or local businesses (subject to meeting certain Terms and Conditions) to apply to. The Grants budget is set every April for the financial year. Grants applications will be considered at a meeting of the Finance, Policy and General Purposes Committee or at a meeting set by the Council, and sometimes on a rolling basis. Grants must clearly benefit the residents within Barry. With limited funding the Town Council has to make difficult choices between competing applications and receiving a grant one year does not guarantee that future applications will be successful. This grant application form can be used to apply to all Council Grant Programmes. Applicants must specify which grant programme they are submitting their application under in order for it to be considered appropriately.

Please identify which of the following grant programmes you are submitting your application under:*
