Important points about being a Community Grant Fund panel member
Managing competing demands for limited amounts of public money at a local level can present panel members with some difficult dilemmas. Therefore, open mindedness and a willingness to consider different viewpoints are essential for this role.
The Council is grateful to the all the volunteers who give their time to be part of the CGF and who contribute towards its implementation across the city each year. The input of local people helps to ensure that the fund is more community-led and responsive to local needs and priorities, now and in future.
