Apex’s Community Involvement Forum (CIF) met in June to review the applications received for this round of its grant scheme

The Forum is pleased to announce that 5 community groups and individual tenants will be awarded a CIF Grant. The groups who have been successful are from the Derry / Londonderry area and are; Eglinton Community, Bogside and Brandywell Initiative, and tenants from Culdaff Gardens and Dove Gardens.

The funding will be used for a range of activities such as community fun days, summer schemes and community outings.

Each year the Forum allocates over £1,000 towards community initiatives and tenants and community groups can apply to the CIF Grant Scheme again in September.  For full conditions and more information please contact Community Involvement Coordinator Rachael Power on Telephone : 028 7130 4800
