October news round-up for community buildings

Here is a round-up of news and links for community associations and halls.

Low-cost, recycled paint – the Community RePaint scheme, which is sponsored by Dulux, offers low-cost paint that has either been donated to the scheme or manufactured from donated paint. If you’re planning to re-decorate, click on the link to find out more.

Promote your organisation on TV – get yourselves on TV, and get a professionally made promotional video that you can add to your website, or send to potential funders, supporters and so on. Read about That’s TV Hampshire here

See who’s getting grant money – 360Giving publishes grant award data from 94 (and rising) funding bodies, in a standard form that you can search and analyse. If you’ve recently been given a grant, encourage the awarding body to register with 360Giving if it hasn’t already done so.

Funding for super-fast internet connections – vouchers are available from the Gigabit Broadband Voucher Scheme to cover the cost of having a faster internet connection installed. Individuals can receive up to £500, and organisations up to £3,000. There are terms and conditions so look at the website for all the details.

  • Pamber parish council were really pleased with the support provided by Action Hampshire’s Rural Housing Enabler helping us through the development process. It was a good experience.

    Chris Goss, Pamber Parish Council
  • Action Hampshire has always been a useful font of information for us at Winchester Churches Nightshelter. Sue has always been really helpful, and I do find the updates from the ‘wider’ world to be of interest.

    Michèle Price, Winchester Churches Nightshelter
  • Having Action Hampshire as a point of reference, support and guidance is invaluable for small to medium sized charities like ourselves. Without them, we would be far less connected and less able to serve our beneficiaries in a meaningful and coordinated way.

    Juno Hollyhock, The Rose Road Association
  • I have found Action Hampshire to be truly innovative and forward thinking in their approach to their work and their passion for the voluntary and community sector is easily measured through their work to help improve the lives of all sections of the community.

    Grant Cornwell, Hampshire & Isle of Wight Community Foundation
  • Action Hampshire are the most fantastic organisation and it has been a pleasure to collaborate with them. They are very positive and easy to work with, from Rachel’s warmth on the front desk all the way up to Sue’s vast knowledge and experience on the top floor.

    George Scott-Welsh, IncuHive
