We want your views and opinions!

We plan to build the Sands End Arts and Community Centre which will house a nursery, community café, a large hall and smaller community rooms in Peterborough Road.

Our vision is for the community centre to not only provide new services for residents of the Sands End ward, but also build a stronger more vibrant centre for all residents in south Fulham.

We plan to open the community centre in late 2019.

Community groups in H&F are being encouraged to apply for grants for schemes to help get more people cycling.

The scheme is managed by Groundwork London and this year has £240,000 available to help up to 30 groups deliver new cycling initiatives.

These can be anything from courses teaching basic cycle maintenance, to guided rides and more. Projects will receive up to £10,000 over three years.

Applications now open at www.cyclinggrants.london  and close on 17 September.

You can read H&F Council’s cycling strategy here, which outlines our plans to make it easier and safer for more people to riding.

For more information about TfL’s cycling initiatives visit tfl.gov.uk/cycling.

Our programme 2027, aims to bring community power into grantmaking through placing talented people from working-class backgrounds into decision-making roles at trusts and foundations.

We’ve had an overwhelmingly positive response to the programme from the grant-giving sector, and as a result we want to re-open our applications to ensure that as many people as possible can access this opportunity to diversify the voices in these organisations and to accelerate their own professional development.

The deadline for applications is 5th August. If you would like to enquire please email: craig@charity-works.co.uk
