Following the announcement of celebration plans by Buckingham Palace, the Jersey Community Foundation confirm that the Platinum Jubilee Lottery Fund is now open and accepting applications.
This fund will support projects that help the community celebrate the Queen’s 70-year reign. It is hoped that any project put forward will bring together many members of the community and give everyone chance to get
involved and enjoy this momentous occasion. Priority will be given to projects that fit into the three key themes that have been approved by the Bailiff, and that underpin the broader programme of events that will take place
over the Jubilee weekend in Jersey.
Theme 1: Young People – to ensure that young people can enjoy and understand the significance of the Jubilee Anniversary and to provide a lasting memory of this very British and unique celebration.
Theme 2: The Environment – to fulfil Her Majesty’s appreciation and will to protect and promote the environment, climate and natural landscape.
Theme 3: Tradition – to preserve and recognise Jersey’s longstanding loyalty to Her Majesty and the Crown, in service and community.
The closing date for applications is 6th February and full guidance on the fund can be found on the Jersey Community Foundation website.
Organisations can apply online. For more information please contact: [email protected]
