Coastal Communities Fund – New Applications Invited from England
The Coastal Communities Fund (CCF) is supporting the development of coastal areas, promoting sustainable economic growth and jobs, so that people are better able to respond to changing economic needs and opportunities.
The Government has committed £27.8 million to support the CCF in 2013-14 with money generated by the Crown Estate’s marine assets. The Fund is UK-wide; however, different levels of funding have been allocated to England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland on the basis of revenue generated.
£21.7 million funding is available in England for 2013-14 and applications for new projects are being invited from today. Individual funding awards of over £50,000 are available for projects lasting up to two years.
The funds can be used to support both capital and revenue projects and communities will be encouraged to match funds with other pots of money.
Examples of activities that may be eligible for funding include:
Innovative bids will be welcomed from businesses, social enterprises, local enterprise partnerships, charities, voluntary groups and local authorities supporting economic development within the community.
Applicants with projects proposed for England are required to submit a stage one application by 13 May 2013.

This is the interesting month, when seeds sown so patiently last month or earlier start to show their little heads. You can almost watch them grow day by day. Then when they are a good size, pot them on, giving each the best start in life.
Now is the time to get to grips with some serious pruning, but don’t get too carried away! Lots of plants need their annual prune now, including roses, dogwoods and many clematis.
If pruning is a bit of a mystery to you, look it up or alternatively phone Pete, Barry or Godfrey.
Pruning not only helps control the size and shape of plants, but also encourages better flower production.
The committee have decided to have another go at opening members gardens in aid of charity. To give everyone plenty of notice, as it can be hard work getting your garden up to scratch, or you may have an area you want to re-develop.
The plan is to hold the event over a weekend in June 2014, in conjunction with a Flower Festival in The Church.
All members living in the village will be approached to open their garden, members living outside the village will be approached to marshal and assist with refreshments.
Pete will be looking for volunteers to help him with the organisation as I, Jan , will be assisting Fran with the Flower Festival.
The Gardening Club committee decided that this year, to encourage more participants the categories for the photographic section of the show should be announced as soon as decided, so here goes:
You have all been told previously of our intention to visit Highgrove, sometime in June. This has now changed, after discussion at the AGM. A definite date of Wednesday 28 August is now confirmed. The cost is £38 for return coach travel and entry to the garden. There are still 6 seats available.
If you are interested , please contact Jan on T: 01258 453470 or Jean T: 01258 452330 ASAP.
35 members attended the AGM, which was well received. Sadly Martin and Mary wished to stand down from the committee and they were presented with a bottle of wine and a bouquet of flowers. They have been replaced on the committee by Godfrey Lewis, Joanna and Derek Gardiner.
The accounts are still healthy with a current balance of £2933.16p, these were accepted by Josie Clarke and seconded by Mary Phipps.
The new year programme was well received and the intention to hold Open Gardens in June 2014 was announced. A meeting for Sub-committee was arranged for Tuesday 09 April.
Anyone interested should contact Pete T: 01258 453470.
