Better Derbyshire Dales Fund

The final round for 2023-24 has now passed and we are waiting for confirmation of the funding scheme for 2024-25.

We are pleased to continue to manage the Better Derbyshire Dales Fund – a small grants scheme for voluntary and community groups in the Derbyshire Dales.

The scheme is funded by Derbyshire Integrated Care Board, Derbyshire County Council Public Health and Derbyshire Dales District Council and has both a revenue and capital strand.

Groups can apply for up to £1,000 of revenue costs such as room hire, activities or sessional worker costs and up to £5,000 of capital costs such as repairs to a village hall or improving a community space.

There will be four rounds in the financial year 2023-2024 with the following closing dates:

  • Friday 28th April 2023
  • Friday 21st July 2023
  • Friday 20th October 2023
