Milton Keynes Development Partnership (MKDP) is launching a new community fund that will give £60,000 to groups and projects in the city every year.
The MKDP Community Fund will award individual grants ranging from £500 upwards to local not-for-profit organisations whose work benefits residents, communities and their quality of life.
Milton Keynes Development Partnership’s Chief Executive, Charles Macdonald, said: “We’ve helped to create hundreds of jobs and homes in Milton Keynes but what gives anywhere a real sense of place and belonging are people and the communities they create.
