An allocation of £1,750 towards promotional materials, information booklets and a web presence.

The Southern Wiltshire Area Board agreed to allocate £1,750 of funds from the 2011/12 budget, towards Job Club Development.

 

Jubilee Event – 1st May 2012

The Area Board will be participating in a Diamond Jubilee event on 1st May which will take place in Cathedral Close, focused around the Magna Carter. The Area Board is currently working with Parishes to identify appropriate displays and participants for the event.

 

The Area Board recognises that some of the participants will require support funding to bring their displays and activities, and also recognises that the event might also incur some support costs if funding is not realised. Therefore it is recommended that the Area Board set aside £1,500 for the event.

 

Decision

The Southern Wiltshire Area Board agreed to set aside £1,500 towards the Jubilee event on 1st May 2012.

 

Community Area Grant

The Board considered the application for funding from the Community Area Grant Scheme from the East Grimstead Diamond Jubilee Pig Roast Committee.

 

Decision

East Grimstead Diamond Jubilee Pig Roast Committee was awarded £350 towards their Jubilee celebratory event and the purchase of memorabilia plates or mugs for children in the village.
