Grant funding open for good community causes in Bognor Regis

Thursday, 9 October 2025 09:00

Bognor Regis Town Council’s Grants Scheme aims to build a more vibrant and active community.

The scheme provides funding to local voluntary and community groups that help improve the lives of residents.

The council says it wants to support organisations that not only benefit the town but also work towards becoming self-sufficient through their own fundraising.

Those who benefited last year included Bognor Regis Carnival Association, Bognor Regis Heritage & Arts Partnership Board, Southdowns Music Festival and Bognor Regis Seafront Lights.

All applications are to be submitted electronically via email to: clerk@bognorregis.gov.uk, together with all required documentation, by no later than 5.00pm on Thursday 13th November 2025.

Applicants will be advised of the outcome of their application at the end of January 2026.
