Tenant Participation

Grants for Tenants Groups

Tenant Groups can apply for a grant to help them with the cost of running their group, the council make money available from the Housing Revenue Account, which is money received from tenants' rents. This is a cash-limited fund and groups need to meet a criteria and provide information before a request for funding can be approved. 

We have a guide that explains the conditions which need to be met, the Tenant Group need to make an application, which will be fully assessed before a grant can be awarded. If awarded, the Tenants Group will also need to monitor and evaluate the use of the grant money they receive, keep receipts and provide a Treasurers Report to show how the grant money has been spent.
