The Norfolk and Suffolk Community Fund is offering six £1,000 grants - three for organisations in each county.

The fund has been launched by holidaycottages.co.uk in partnership with the Suffolk and Norfolk Local Visitor Economy Partnership (LVEP).

The scheme supports projects that deliver meaningful and lasting benefits within their communities.

Serena Clarke, social impact manager at holidaycottages.co.uk, said: "We are thrilled to launch the Norfolk and Suffolk Community Fund.

"We are passionate about supporting the communities that make our holiday destinations so unique.

"By investing in local projects, we hope to create lasting, positive impacts that help towns and villages thrive, ensuring they remain cherished places for both visitors and residents alike."

Applications opened earlier this month and will close on May 25.

Eligible organisations are encouraged to apply through the Suffolk and Norfolk LVEP website before the deadline.

The new fund is part of the ongoing commitment from both partners to support the communities that help make the region a popular destination for visitors.
