Purpose
This report presents an application from a local organisation requesting £800.00 towards the cost of their annual Christmas Lunch for 60 to 70 older people, some house-bound, including residents from three local nursing homes, with transport from the Local Member Grants Scheme.
Decision
County Councillor David Howarth considered and approved a Local Member Grant for the reduced amount of £250 to St Mary Magdalen and St Teresa St Vincent de Paul Society towards the cost of the annual Christmas Lunch for 60 to 70 older people.
The reason for the reduction is the amount applied for is 40% of the councillors total budget, which would prevent local groups from being supported.
