Grants

ESCA raises funds through May Day, Open Gardens and other activities throughout the year. Each year we return those funds to the community, in the form of grants to groups based in the Eatons and the wider parish. In addition St Neots Town Council support us by contributing a sum specifically for groups who would not qualify for larger grant schemes. Cheques are presented at our AGM in October each year by the May Queen and her court.

If you are a group who might like a small donation please email us or write to ESCA at 3 Collingwood Road, Eaton Socon, St Neots, Cambs, PE19 8JQ and let us know what you would use the money for. All groups will be considered – whatever the age. We are keen to help as many local groups as possible so please do apply! Deadline for 2015 requests – Sep 30th 2015.
