Centenary Grants
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.
An application form can be downloaded using the link below or
call Leilah Vyner, Project Development Officer, Department of
Community Services on 01423 556702.
