£5m boost to upgrade community spaces across Wales
On the 2 July Welsh Government announced that £5 million is being made available to upgrade and transform spaces where people in communities gather across Wales. The Welsh Government is allocating the additional funding to the Community Facilities Programme (CFP) this year, subject to Senedd approval in July.
CFP helps voluntary and community organisations improve well used and much needed community facilities – like community centres, grassroot sports facilities and libraries – through refurbishment leading to improvements that benefit local people.
This year, the investment will be used to allow more community led projects to access funding.
Through the programme, grants of up to £300,000 can be made for large community led projects and up to £25,000 for smaller scale improvements.
