Community Support Grants

Apply for a Support Grant

All applications are made online through our application form. Please ensure you provide as much information on the application as possible to prevent any further delays once your application is assigned to a decision maker. 

If you require support with completing the form, we do provide an over the phone application service. Please contact the team on 024 7683 3773 to access this service. 

The team is available by phone between: Monday - Friday 11am to 1pm.

Once you have spoken to an officer the call back request will be added to our queue and we will return the call as soon as possible. Timescales for providing over-the-phone support are based on the level of requests we have outstanding.

When the officer attempts to return the call if they are unsuccessful, they will leave a voicemail and issue a text message. A further call will be made at a later stage and if unsuccessful the call back request will be completed. 

In case of an out of hours emergency the Council's Emergency Duty Team can be contacted:
