Skipton Town Council is keen to contribute financial support to projects being developed by community organisations for purposes which strengthen the community and enhance the well-being of residents and their environment, within the parish.
Grants may complement other sources of funding, and this is encouraged. Skipton Town Council operates a grant scheme for community organisations to apply for up to £2000.
Application forms to apply can be obtained from: Skipton Town Council, Armoury House, 45A Otley Street, Skipton, BD23 1EL or you can download a copy of the criteria and application form.
Next deadline is the 6th February 2025
All applications will be considered by the Town Council on their merits. If some aspects of your application fall outside the guidance and criteria below, you may still apply, but you should make a very clear case as to why you believe your project should be awarded funds by the Town Council.
