Centenary Grants

Athletics Young Musicians Diving
 
Aspiring sporting stars and artistes of the future are being invited to apply for a grant from Harrogate Borough Council's Centenary Grants Project. 
 
This project was set up to celebrate the council's centenary in 1984 and since then over 500 talented young people have benefited from the fund.
 
The council is seeking nominations from sporting or artistic young people who are 18 or under and resident in the Harrogate district who compete at a regional level. Many of those who have received grants have gone on to national level.
 
Last year 35 talented individuals received grants totalling £3,500, the youngest recipients being three 11 year olds.  The disciplines ranged from singing and piano to tennis and dinghy racing.  All eligible young residents are urged to make an application.
