Determined by the Local Community
Funding for projects is determined by a public vote. Every two years applications are invited, published on the website and then a public vote held for all residents of Maerdy Ward aged 15 and over. The projects with the most votes receive the funding.
Open to All
We are a community fund supporting projects around Maerdy in the Rhondda, with money provided by the nearby Maerdy Windfarm.
Grants range from £500 to £5,000 and are open to individuals as well as organisations. Profit making enterprises are allowed and match funding is not required. A minimum number of just five votes is required.
