  • natural play/exercise/relaxation
  • cultural/events
  • growing
  • outdoor exhibitions
  • education
  • transient/flexible arts spaces
  • urban beaches
  • or any innovative idea

Community Support for Stalled Spaces has funding available ranging from a minimum of £1,000 to a maximum of £2,500.

Following the first round of applications, 21 community led projects have received financial assistance from the initiative. Community groups/organisations are now invited to apply for the second round funding.
