Applications are also being invited for “infrastructure projects”. If you are an organisation or local group looking to enhance or provide new facilities for the benefit of Edenbridge, you can also apply for CIL funding; there is currently over £100,000 available. The closing date for CIL funding applications is 21 October.

Previous awards have included:
