Deadline extended for RBH 'Dig It'” grant funding

Date published: 03 March 2015


The deadline for RBH 'Dig It'” grant funding has been extended by a week with a new closing date of Friday 6 March 2015.

For the past six years, RBH has provided funding via 'Dig It' grants for planting schemes which improve the look of RBH neighbourhoods, and tenants across the Borough have taken advantage.

Following last year’s root-and-branch review of the scheme, all tenants and residents in RBH neighbourhoods, and all mutual members of RBH are able to apply. 

The grants will fund plants, bulbs, containers, compost and equipment. 

Grants are available for projects from a few pounds up to a maximum of £300.

The planting must take place on RBH communal land.

Each application must be sponsored by an RBH mutual member (either tenant or employee).

If you'd like to find out more about 'Dig It' or make an application, please contact Ruth Camm or Linda Holcroft on 01706 273977.

The revised closing date for applications is Friday 6 March 2015.
