Padstow Town Council is pleased to support the local community and proud of its Grants Policy which is funded by the Council’s two car parks and property rental income. The Council does not need to set a precept (parish/town cost) on top of the Council tax set by Cornwall Council. In fact Padstow is the only Town Council in Cornwall not to charge a precept.
If you think your organisation could benefit from a Padstow Town Council Grant, please view the Grant Policy below which gives details of eligibility criteria and the application process. Applications for 2017-18 grants will be invited in October 2016 details of which will be available on our website, notice boards and social media.
Well done to Padstow council
