We are excited to announce the launch of the applications for the Community Priorities Programme (CPP) for the 2024-26 funding cycle where applicants can apply for funding between £2,000 and £30,000.

The Community Priorities Programme is a grants programme funded by the council and coordinated by our Communities Department. It aims to strengthen communities in the borough, specifically in areas of highest deprivation: Queens Park, Bayswater, Westbourne, Church Street, Harrow Road, Maida Vale, Little Venice, Abbey Road, Lancaster Gate, Pimlico North and South, Vincent Square, and St James’s ward. 

The application process is now open and will close on Friday, 5th July.
