Uttlesford District Council

Ukraine Community Grant Fund

Small grants of up to £300 per activity, event or project that helps Ukrainian guests integrate into the Uttlesford community: social gatherings, English classes, crafts, sport, cooking, skills for work or emotional support. Parish councils, constituted community groups, informal groups including Ukrainian guests, and hosts can apply. Applications are reviewed monthly, and the fund may close or change with need and the government funding received.
