Grants and Award Schemes

Grant Scheme

Each year Woodbridge Town Council awards grants to Charities and Voluntary Organisations that contribute to the well-being of Woodbridge or promote the image of the Town.

Funds are limited therefore however well deserving, County and National charities and organisations are unlikely to receive grant funding unless they can demonstrate that any funds granted will directly benefit Woodbridge and its inhabitants.

Grants are awarded by the Town Council at its July meeting. Applications for those awards should be received by the Town Clerk at Shire Hall, Market Hill, Woodbridge IP12 4LP or email: townclerk@woodbridge-suffolk.co.uk by 31st May 2023.

Applications Forms and details of Criteria can be found by clicking on the below documents;
