Are you, your friends or your family involved with local community groups? If so, we would like to invite you to apply for a funding grant to help deliver a local community event as part of the Inverclyde Meliora Festival for 2022.
What is the Meliora Festival?
Meliora means “in the pursuit of betterment” and this year we want to bring our local communities together to celebrate the resilience and compassion you have shown over the last two years.
In addition to our three headline events in May and June, we are delighted to be offering a supportive funding opportunity for local community groups to deliver events in their area.
The events are intended to provide an opportunity for communities to socialise and reconnect with others during the summer through delivery of a range of activities.
It is therefore important that the events benefit the wider community. This may include events as part of the Platinum Jubilee celebrations.
Inverclyde Council has allocated a fund of £120,000 to be split across the six locality areas for community events. Each locality area will be asked via the local communication and engagement group to help shape, decide and organise events using their £20,000 allocation.
