Suffolk ACRE

The London 2012 'Open Weekend', is an annual UK-wide celebration of art, culture, sport, and everything that makes up the London 2012 Games. It's an opportunity for local community groups to showcase themselves and inspire others.

In Suffolk, we're launching 'Suffolk Open Weekend' to enable community groups, groups of individuals and parish or town councils across Suffolk to hold small cultural and sporting events to mark London 2012 Open Weekend. This is being supported by the Culture and Sport and Community Cohesion and Inclusion Delivery Partnerships.

Further information about these partnerships can be found at: http://www.transformingsuffolk.co.uk/partnerships/delivery-partnerships

If your group or organisation would like to hold such an event, and would like to apply for a grant of up to £500, please either use the form attached to this email, or apply online at: http://www.openweekendinsuffolk.com/

There are two funding rounds, the first closes on 22 January 2010 and the second on 16 April 2010.
