Havering Council

We aim to fund projects that show real innovation and imagination and projects which have the support the local community in Havering.

The projects we aim to fund can take any shape from schools to open spaces.

We hope to achieve a more cohesive and sustainable community, where organisations can work in independence from the Council and are more resilient for the future.
