We are delighted to have a grants programme which supports local voluntary and community groups to deliver projects and events which benefit Hackney residents. Come to the event to find out about how the Council is working with the Voluntary and Community Sector and next year’s grants programme which includes grants ranging from £1,000 for small community events to grants of up to £40,000 for larger projects.
