CASH is available to help tackle climate change. The end of October is the


last chance this year for local groups to apply for L an ­ cashire County Council’s “Climate Change Fund” to carry out projects to improve insulation, save fuel, or gener­ ate green energy, - The initiative was launched


last year to encourage grass­ roots carbon-cutting activity and is starting to show results with a number of schemes now up-and-running., • •,


The grants are awarded by Lancashire Local committees


■ in each district with cash still available in every area except for Burnley, Preston and Rossendale. I t is open to vol­ untary organisations, com­ munity groups and parish


and town councils. County . Councillor


Matthew Tomlinson, Cabinet member for Sustainable Development, said: “With energy prices rising, many


-community groups have taken the opportunity offered


by the Climate Change Fund to install better insulation and more efficient heating. “We want groups to come


to us with projects th a t can help to inspire others in their community to do their bit to tackle climate change.” Grants have already been


made to groups in every dis­ tr ic t , including The L an ­ cashire Wildlife Trust, which received £10,318 to re-wet moorland a t Moor Piece Nature Reserve.


• Groups are asked to consid­


er how their bids can demon- • strate social, environmental •


economic and ed u c a t io i^ ' benefits.’ T h ey,are also asked to ’


investigate whether the money could be made to go ’ further by unlocking “match funding” from elsewhere. For more information on how your group can apply, visit
