ANOTHER successful Participatory Budgeting Day was held on Saturday 11 February 2012 at The House Conference Centre, Scunthorpe.

25 local groups were bidding for their share of £30,000 for community projects – and some great projects were seen. We had singing, dancing, art and much, much, more. This time the destination for our fund was also influenced by our own tenant panel. The successfully funded groups were;

Broughton L.I.V.E.S

Basketball Leadership Academy

Duck Egg Theatre Group

Westcliff Drop In

Acorns Dreamscheme

Epworth Brownies

Kimberley performing Arts

Gallery Revealed

Bridge Ventures

Wilton Productions

New Westcliffe RA

ST-ART

Gooch Judo Kwai

Congratulations to all of those who were funded. Commiserations to those who were not. Overall, the day highlighted again the great work being done around North Lincolnshire by all of the groups who applied.

Please keep up the good work and keep your eye on this website and also our Facebook and Twitter pages, for details of any further funding opportunities.
