Applications for Funding of Creative, Cultural Projects in Leominster Closing Soon!

Groups and businesses who have ideas for a cultural activity for Leominster are being encouraged to apply for grants which have been made available by Leominster ROARs.

There are two pots of money available to be bid for, and these fall into two categories:

Small grants: £1500 per project

Large grants: £5000 per project

The deadline for applications is 26 August 2022.

All projects need to take place in Leominster before March 2023. The projects may be shaped in any way the owner wishes, however Leominster ROARs are specifically looking for:

  • Projects that help them to fulfil the aim to develop a collaborative and inclusive cultural programme that draws out the many different voices that whisper, yell, laugh, cry, and shout from the people, places and spaces of Leominster’s past and present, uniting them in a mighty ROAR that stirs up local creativity, pride, passion and community spirit for the future.
  • Activities that creatively engage the town in one/more of these areas: theatre, dance, music, crafts, performance, visual arts, community activities, literature, history or town trails

For more information and an application form, please contact Rachel Buchanan, Leominster ROARs Programme Development Officer on email: leominsterroars@leominstertowncouncil.gov.uk or on tel: 07813 612033.
