The Bluestar Community Fund is open once again!

Every month, we are approached by many organisations in the community asking for help or donations towards their local efforts. Our Community Fund is our dedicated resource for supporting these local causes, charities and organisations, whether it is monetary support, marketing help, free travel or the use of a bus for an event required.

Going forward, the fund will be open three times per year in January, May and October, giving even more chances for groups to get support from us. Plus, each round there is up to £750 worth of support up for grabs, increased from £500 in previous years.

We encourage anyone who needs a helping hand, however big or small, to apply.

Community Funding will be allocated to worthy causes by a 'judging' panel including our local management team. Successful applicants will be contacted, while those not successful are welcome to apply for the next set of funding available.

How to Apply

You just need to tell us who you are, about your cause, what you need from us, and the difference this support would make to you.

Whether your request is for a raffle prize or a new sports team kit, our panel will take all serious applications into consideration. Please go into as much detail as you can about your cause and how we can help to make a difference.

We hope that the Community Fund application process will offer a fairer support process and see new individuals and groups coming forward who may not have wanted to ask for help previously.
