[cma-l] Funding News - Tesco Bags Of Help (Great Britain only - NI excluded)

[CMA-L]

Bags of Help is Tesco’s local community grant scheme where the money raised
from the 5p bag levy in Tesco stores is being used to fund thousands of
community projects across the UK. The projects must meet the criteria of
promoting community participation in the development and use of outdoor
spaces.

Bags of Help is administered by Groundwork and supported in Scotland by
greenspace scotland.

*How does Bags of Help work?*

Bags of Help is now is always open to applications from community projects.

Groundwork assesses all of the applications received to ensure they are
eligible. This is followed up by Tesco shortlisting groups who decide which
projects go forward to the in-store vote.

Three local community projects will be voted on in Tesco stores each month
across Tesco regions throughout England, Scotland and Wales. In each
region, the project that received the most votes from all stores in their
region will receive a grant of up to £5,000. The second placed project
receives up to £2,000 and third placed up to £1000. Every year, over 7000
projects will receive funding through this scheme.
