Bedworth Lions are encouraging local groups/schools to apply to their 2018 Lion's Den. Last year the initiative gave away £8,000 across five groups, including St James' Academy, Bulkington who were awarded £1,300 to make improvements to their wildlife garden, and £1,500 to St Michael's Children's Centre, Bedworth who received £1,500 to extend their community cafe. You can read more about the 2017 awards on the Bedworth Lion's website.

 

Bedworth Lions are running a second funding opportunity in 2018, with up to £5,000 available for groups, schools & other projects working in the Bedworth/Bulkington area.

 

Stage one is a simple application form to be completed and returned by 30th June. The top five applicants will be invited to attend the Lions' Den event on 19th October, to give a 5 minute presentation and answer questions from the Lions about their project. The evening will be hosted by a Radio 4 presenter and activities will be put on to keep children entertained. Tickets when they go on sale will be £1 and free for children.

 

Please refer to the attached guidance and application form for further information.
