Capital grants to the value of £111,000 have been dished out to organisations within a 10-mile radius of Stansted Airport this year.

Stansted Airport Community Trust awarded grants to a wide variety of organisations. One for £1,500 was to the Dunmow Majorettes for new equipment for the group.

If you think that your organisation qualifies and could benefit from some additional funding of up to £2,000 to help with a project that you have in mind, contact SACT, PO Box 11, County Hall, Chelmsford CM1 1LX or email cllr.susan.barker@essex.gov.uk for an application form or advice.

The closing date for the next round of applications is February 28, 2014.

The Trust does not fund projects for parish councils or individuals and does not grant money for completed projects.
