Tue, 21 Apr 2009 16:52:37 GMT
Community groups across the country have less than a month to beat the deadline and enter The People’s Millions TV contest to secure the chance to win a Lottery award of up to £50,000 to improve their local area.
Later in the year, shortlisted projects will be screened on their local ITV evening regional news where viewers will be able to cast their vote for the projects they want to win the good-cause cash.
This year the contest will make 69 awards of up to £50,000 across the ITV regions* for projects that will enhance local facilities or help people to enjoy their local area.Projects that have received funding through the contest have included a community garden and allotment, a tall-ship sailing project, a community bicycle scheme, steelpan classes for young people, a mobile farm, and a scheme providing housing starter packs to the formerly homeless.
The People’s Millions is part of BIG’s commitment to involving the public in deciding how Lottery money is spent. In the last four years, the competition has made 318 awards totalling £18 million to community projects across the UK through the contest.
You could have the chance of securing funds for the play equipment your community has always dreamed of
