CHARITIES and community groups across Solihull have been invited to apply for grants that will help make a difference.
William H Painter Funeral Directors has opened its first round of its Community Fund.
Up to £6,000 is available from the funding pot over the year, which aims to support activities that enhance the quality of life for residents living within a three-mile radius of funeral homes in Yardley, Chelmsley Wood, Castle Bromwich, Solihull, Sutton Coldfield and Erdington.
Projects must align with one or more of four categories health, education, employment opportunities, and poverty and social deprivation.
Emma Welch, senior funeral arranger said: “As a funeral home rooted in the community, it’s a privilege to support inspiring organisations that are making such a positive difference locally.
“We’re delighted to be able to offer this funding and would encourage any local groups with a project that supports the community to apply.”
The deadline for applications for this round is March 22.
The second round of their Community Fund grants will take place later in the year.
