Cheshire West and Chester Council has launched a new Community Investment Fund to support preventative, community-led activities across the region.

The Cheshire West and Chester Council has introduced a new initiative, the Community Investment Fund. This fund aims to provide grant funding to organisations and groups dedicated to supporting preventative, community-led activities. The goal is to assist residents earlier, strengthen local resilience, and reduce the need for statutory and high-cost services.
This new fund is partially supported by the Crisis and Resilience Fund. Further details and information on how to apply can be found on the council's dedicated Community Investment Fund webpage.
