PCA GRANTS.
Surpluses generated by PCA events, due to the hard work of our volunteers and events team and the support from our members and local businesses now total over £90,000 since 2010.
None of the surpluses from the events go towards the cost of running the PCA, which is a charity. Surpluses from the event enable the PCA to
hold an annual tea party for our older members - afternoon tea with style at the Brentham Club since 2009
subsidise the weekly Monday tea club for older people - run in partnership with the Pitshanger Methodist church - now running for 3 years
have a bi-annual Lucky Dip for members
contribute £4,000 towards the purchase of new Christmas lights for the lane in 2015
run an Annual Awards scheme providing help and assistance to local charities and good causes
HOW TO APPLY FOR A GRANT.
All the necessary information, about how to apply for a 2019 Grant from the PCA, criteria for applicants, and application deadline will be made available in late spring 2019. Watch this page and watch out for our front page news item.
