THE hunt is on for projects and good causes in Worcestershire to receive grant funding of more than £9,000.

The Prime Foundation is a charity based in Worcester that is inviting projects to bid for the money.

The good causes must either advance education outside the classroom, promote good physical and mental health or furthering the enhancement of social wellbeing through recreation.

The charity was established in 2007 by healthcare property developer Prime plc.

Hannah Cashmore, from the Prime Foundation, said: “Prime has donated a share of its annual profits to the Foundation and we will distribute this on their behalf to initiatives that help improve the lives of people in Worcestershire.

"Receiving a grant from the Foundation would be a fantastic way to start 2019 for one or more good causes, and we are looking forward to hearing from the community about the many different schemes that would benefit from our support.”

The charity has £9,215 to give away.
