Three weeks left to apply for a share of the £10k Ragdale fund
You have only another three weeks to apply for a share of this year’s £10k Ragdale Hall Community Chest.
The Melton Times has once again partnered with the award-winning Ragdale Hall Spa to allocate money from the fund to local community groups, charities, sports clubs and schools.
Applications are flowing in, including one from a community group based at St John’s Court, in Melton Mowbray, which consists of 70 flats for elderly, vulnerable and disabled people.
The group would like a donation to help pay for a coach trip to the seaside for the residents this year.
Melton Community First Responders have applied for a donation towards the cost of new kit for a trainee and for other volunteer members of the group.
If you are applying for a share of this year’s fund please specify how much money you require to help the judges make final decisions on where the donations go this year.
You also need to tell us what the money would be spent on and how many people in the community it would benefit.
We want to help as many groups and organisations as we can so requests must be limited to between £100 and £500.
Applicants need to email [email protected] and include a contact name, telephone/mobile number and a brief outline of what your group does.
Applications must be made before the deadline of Thursday May 7 and a panel of judges will then sit down to decide who will receive a share of this year’s fund.
