Last chance to apply for Bedfordshire housebuilder’s £12,000 community fund
Deserving groups in Bedfordshire are being urged to act quickly and apply for a share of £12,000 as a housebuilder’s funding scheme comes to a close.
Redrow South Midlands, which is currently building at Templars Park in Bedford, Leestone Chase in Leighton Buzzard and Pilgrims Chase in Harlington, created the community fund to support as many local organisations and individuals as possible – and it is welcoming applications for 2026.
There’s no cause too small, so whether funds are required for football kits to help sporty youngsters enjoy the beautiful game, to aid a vital charity in feeding struggling families or to support an animal shelter in need of new dog beds, Redrow South Midlands’s initiative can help.
The scheme will close at midnight on Friday 25 September. For further details on how to apply, please email barrattredrow@wpragency.co.uk.
