DOUGLAS COMMUNITY SPACES GROUP SC043807

Proposal code: CONSUL-2025-11-229

Utility bill support

DCSG obtained 3 years funding from the Lottery to employ a development officer and run activities and services for local people in Douglas community Park. The park includes an area run by Douglas Growers, who provide raised beds for people to grow their own produce and provide for the local food larder. Part of the lottery budget included an allowance for utilities (water and electricity SSE) used by the growers. The lottery funding finished in May 25. DCSG is currently applying for grant funding to keep their development worker post. In order that DCSG can continue to provide free activities for local people in the park they need to secure funding to pay the utilities needed to run the park. As well as the electricity and water used by the Douglas growers, DCSG also pay for the lighting supplying the MUGA and Play Park (EON).
