Springboard Grant Notice
Please be advised that applications for Springboard Grants are no longer being accepted at this time.
For all springboard applications that have already been approved, payments are continuing to be processed.
Please be advised that in order to be eligible for a springboard grant you must not have any rental arrears on your account and the rationale for the requirement for funding must adhere to our Grants Criteria
Please note that as the government has made school uniforms more affordable for families by removing the requirement for branded products, the Thriving Communities Fund will no longer accept applications for school uniform purchases.
Alternative help with school uniform purchases can be found through third party agencies such as Aylesbury Vineyard Storehouse. More information relating to the changes made by the government to make school uniforms more affordable, can be found on their website.
