Rural Action Awards Scheme Accepting Applications
The Rural Action Awards scheme offers rural community-based organisations in Northern Ireland or the border region of Ireland the opportunity to apply for and secure £1000 or €1000 towards one volunteer-led community action project.
Our Rural Action Awards scheme is designed to support up to 12 volunteer led community action projects up to March 2023.
The scheme is open to constituted rural community-based organisations including charities, not for profit community groups, sporting and cultural organisations, heritage groups, Parent Teacher Associations, youth groups/clubs and social enterprises.
The scheme seeks to support practical, tangible and timebound projects where the project must complete within 12 weeks.
Applications must be submitted by 20th of each month to be considered for funding and applications will remain valid for 3 months up to the final allocation in March 2023.
Applications are only valid for 3 months so if you entered for the November 2022 awards and were unsuccessful you must now resubmit your application.
