Each county councillor has a budget to allow them to respond to local needs by recommending funding to support specific activities.
Each county councillor has a budget of £5,000 per year to allow them to respond to local needs by recommending the allocation of small amounts of funding to support specific activities.
These activities promote the social, economic, or environmental wellbeing of the communities they represent. Funding can be used for projects or undertaken by external organisations or for additional services provided by the county council.
It is not a grants programme and each county councillor is responsible for determining how they wish to promote and use the budget.
