£200,000 (approximately) available per year
Fund Provided by:
Mick George Limited through the Landfill Communities Fund (LCF)
The Mick George Community Fund provides grants of between £5,000 and £50,000, although it is unlikely that individual grants over £35,000 will be made.
Projects located within 5 miles of the Mick George Operations in Northamptonshire, Cambridgeshire and Lincolnshire can apply (providing the project location is also within 10 miles of any licensed landfill site). A funding area map is available by clicking the image link below and to check whether you have a landfill site within 10 miles of your project site, please go to the Environment Agency website.
At each funding round, a minimum of 25% of the available money is ring fenced for worthy applications received from within the Parish of Rushton. However, if applications from Rushton are not received, the funding will be available to other applications.
There are two funding rounds each year. Details for 2013 can be found below:

Important Notes
The Mick George Community Fund uses an online application process. Applications in other formats will not, therefore, be accepted.
If your group is not able to complete an online application form due to specific communication requirements, please contact GrantScape so that we can help you with alternative arrangements.
Applications received after a closing date will be automatically submitted to the next funding round, if available.
Your project may also fall under the area covered by the Woodford Community and Environmental Fund. If so, you can also apply to this Fund.
