Hastings District Council encourages local community groups and organisations to work with Council towards meeting the current and future needs of our community. If your organisation is delivering projects or services that fit with one or more of the priorities set out below, we invite you to apply to our annual Single Year Community Grant.
Groups that have previously been awarded a Single Year Community Grant, and who are providing a proven positive impact to the community, can apply for a Multi-year Strategic Community Partnership Fund.
Single Year Community Grants are for the development and delivery of community services or projects. Evidence of need, planning, budgets and annual accounts are required as part of the application.
The Single Year Community Grants fund is now open until 24 April 2025.
All applications must be submitted via the online grants portal.
Priorities for funding
Each year Council contributes funds to a diverse range of groups delivering community services or projects across the district. Organisations are able to apply for up to $15,000 per year via the Single Year Community Grants, larger amounts can be accessed via the Multi-year grants.
For larger projects it’s unlikely Council will provide the total amount of funding required so groups will need to show how they can attract funding from other agencies and charities outside of Council, or have the ability to put a significant amount of money into the project themselves. Council is looking for new and innovative ways to help support the current and future needs of our communities.
To be eligible for funding, groups need to show how their project fits with one or more of the priorities below:
More information can be found in the Contestable Grants and Funding Framework.
Groups that have previously been successful obtaining a Single Year Community Grant, and are providing a proven positive impact to the community, can apply to the Multi-year Strategic Community Partnership Fund. Multi-year contracts are reported on annually. Outcomes are reviewed each year against agreed key performance indicators, including financial.
Applications are now closed
For more information contact the Community Grants and Projects Advisor.
