Community groups and local organisations who would like to run projects as part of Sefton’s Borough of Culture celebrations can now bid for funding.


The Borough of Culture initiative is part of the Metro Mayor’s Culture programme, which commits to spending the equivalent of 1% of its annual £30 million devolution funding from government to stimulate cultural and creative activities.


Groups can now express interest in securing support from Sefton Council with their proposals.

This may include bidding for money to help them organize events throughout 2020 with two different tiers of funding available – up to £5,000 and £5,000 - £15,000.
