Vote fo funds in Stafford or the Moorlands

As your local county councillor I have been allocated £10,000 to spend on community projects in Caverswall, Forsbrook, Werrington and Dilhorne.

This year I'm taking part in an exciting new pilot scheme which will give everyone the opportunity to influence the future of where they live, help to generate community pride and pull our community together. 

It is now down to all applicants to drum up support for their project.  Publicity guidance can be downloaded by clicking on the document image on the right hand side of the page.

I have been asked to support the following projects:-
