Time Together volunteers will support clients with day to day tasks such as cooking.

Residents of Starbeck have been invited to apply for grant funding to help enhance where they live.

Applications for the Starbeck Community Small Grants Fund opened this week.

A fund of £300,000 was created in 1992 following an agreement with the developers of the Morrisons supermarket in Hookstone Chase. Interest from the fund has enabled annual grants to be given out.

The grants are distributed by North Yorkshire Council for the benefit of residents.

Two funding categories are available, with grants of up to £200 for individuals and up to £1,000 for community groups.



In 2022, six awards were made. Time Together received gardening tools and seeds, St Andrew’s Church got a new cooker, Harrogate Hawks rugby team was successful in getting money for storage and equipment, Claro Enterprises received lighting for a community workshop, Starbeck Library received a new tea and coffee machine and new Christmas lights were purchased for Starbeck.

Cllr Pat Marsh, who represents the Stray, Woodlands and Hookstone division on North Yorkshire Council and sits on the grants panel, said:

“Starbeck residents take great pride in their community and grants like this help to further improve the area in which they live.
“I would encourage people to once again make the most of this opportunity and submit their applications for funding as soon as possible.”


The deadline for applications is 4.30pm on Monday, July 24. Full details and how to apply can be found by visiting the NYC website.
