Recipients of the Open Fund and Inside Out Fund are undertaking a variety of projects within the local area. A range of groups are benefitted because of the work done by these organisations, including sports clubs, scout groups, and schools in and around 91²Ö¿â.
91²Ö¿â’s Community Manager, Jenny Ardley said: “We are delighted to support local charities and voluntary organisations through the Community Donations Fund.

It was a pleasure to connect with many of the representatives at our recent event, and we extend our best wishes for their continued success in their important work.”
