Why can't you fund this project from your reserves:
Winterslow Cricket is a not for profit organisation run in the interests of providing cricket available to all age groups in the village community. It\\\\\\\'s only income sources are from charging an annual membership and match fees when games are played and some limited donations from local supporters.The running costs of this club increase year on year in particular the overheads e.g ground and pavilion rental, club insurances,upkeep and maintenance of the cricket ground and equipment, and senior and junior league fees. The surplus made in 2014 will be reinvested in the club in terms of it\\\\\\\'s operational costs. At the time of application, essential repairs on ground equipment over and above the club\\\\\\\'s estimate this year, have already consumed this surplus.

We are a small community group and do not have annual accounts or it is our first year:

Winterslow Cricket Club has two senior men\'s teams and four age groups for children. This Club has been running for 150 years and has made available cricket to children in Winterslow and the surrounding villages for the last 25 years. The Cricket Club in 2014 has been successful for the second time in being awarded Club Mark which recognsies a well run club in providing a good standard of cricket coaching and development for children both boys and girls from 7 to 15 years of age. The club is well aware that some clubs within the Southern area are struggling to provide children\'s cricket which makes Winterslow continued survival even more vital to the local community. The Mobile Cricket Cage will be used to support weekly coaching and training of our junior members. This cage provides a safe facility for them to practice their batting and bowling skills. Furthermore it supports the cricket club in continuning to provide access to sport which not only develops the health and wellbeing of children but also provides an environment in which a team sport can be enjoyed by children of all ages and backgrounds.

14. How will you monitor this?
The Cricket Club has a monthly committee meeting which oversees the runnning and development of the club. It will be their role to ensure that the use of this piece of equipment and it\'s upkeep is monitored.

15. If your project will continue after the Wiltshire Council funding runs out, how will you continue to fund it?
This project is on off in that the funding is required to purchase a vital piece of equipment. The club will provide in it\'s annual budget a provision for the upkeep and maintenance of this equipment.

6. Project summary:
To replace two existing public noticeboards in Farley which are in a dreadfully dilapidated state, and which were originally erected as a memorial to those Farley residents who had given their lives in the two World Wars.

11. Have you or do you intend to apply for a grant from another area board within this financial year?
No
12. If so, which Area Boards?
Southern Wiltshire

13. Please tell us WHO will benefit and HOW they will benefit from your project benefit your local community?
Noticeboards - Farley residents and visitors will benefit. They will be able to view in hard copy notices of community events and other local information, and the details of local trades and businesses. In this period of marking the sacrifice of English men and women who gave their lives for their country, it is also felt that restoring what are informal War Memorials to those Farley residents who died, will fulfil the Farley community\'s need and wish to provide a fitting and continuing tribute to their sacrifice and loss. Map Lecterns - visitors to the whole parish will benefit, as they will have a pictorial guide to the parish\'s attractions,pubs, shop and the footpath/bridleways into and across the parish, that may not be obvious from where they are standing. This Communication & Information project links to the current Area Board priorities to help protect local facilities - the two pubs and the shop - and also to promote outdoor recreation, tourism and business.

14. How will you monitor this?
The current noticeboards are in a dilapidated state, and are hardly used at all as a result. It will be easy to monitor, as the boards will become full of notices that are current, rather than old and dated. There will be increased footfall into the pubs and shop, and the footpaths will be used more often, with increased numbers of walkers seen.

15. If your project will continue after the Wiltshire Council funding runs out, how will you continue to fund it?
Ongoing ownership and maintenance of the noticeboards and lecterns will be the responsibility of the Parish Council, and will be funded from the precept.

16. Is there anything else you think we should know about the project?
N/A

1. Which type of grant are you applying for?
Community Area Grant

2. Amount of funding required?
just short of £5k

3. Are you applying on behalf of a Parish Council?
yes

4. If yes, please state why this project cannot be funded from the Parish Precept
it is, but is part of a broader investment programme for the recreation ground

5. Project title?
Equipment Attractive to Youth at Landford Recreation Ground

6. Project summary:
The Recreation Ground has swings and climbing frames for juniors and toddlers. The swings and junior climbing frame are elderly. The grand scheme is to provide equipment for juniors and toddlers within a fenced area, and equipment for teenagers outside. The aim is to provide something which will attract teenagers to the Recreation Ground (the zipwire)whilst the monkey bars and a rotator will be more physically challenging. This bid relates only to the zipwire and monkey bars. The latter are intended to provide a more interesting alternative to the goalposts, which are being damaged by teenagers swinging on them.

Why can't you fund this project from your reserves:

The carry forward is high because in the current year we have contributed to the refurbishment of the pavilion and knew we had to plan for this major project of improving the recreation ground.  The parish is in an area where neither Wiltshire Council not the NFNPA permit development, so there is no S106 or CIL funding available, nor likely to be any in the future.  This leaves the parish council heavily dependent on grants an donations if it is to carry out any capital projects for the local community.  The total scheme is estimated to cost £80,000, however the suppliers all know that if we are not successful in our bid to raise the funding then the scheme will be implemented piecemeal.  The teenage element is to be given top priority because at the moment there is nothing specifically for that age group.
