Are you a resident, group or organisation committed to improving the health and well-being of residents on Vauxhall Gardens Estate?

You can apply for funding to help you do this.

Up to £500 (smaller projects) and up to £5000 (larger projects).

Activities should be based around the following main heads any ideas including and beyond the examples welcome:

• Encouraging healthy eating – for example, have you & your neighbours ever wanted to grow your own vegetables or run healthy eating workshops?
• Encouraging the take up of physical activity – for example, start up a walking club on the estate, or run dance classes.
• Promoting the use of open spaces – for example, create ways for the community to use areas outside your home.
• Using arts & cultural activities to develop positive health and well being– for example, start a club in the Carmelita Centre or help the community create an arts trail on the estate.
• Young people – could you develop a project that will interest and engage young people?
