Lloyds Bank Foundation has funded Hunts Forum and CCVS to provide additional support to charities and community groups across Fenland. As a result, Fenland will soon be given a say on how its small, local community groups are heard, represented and given the tools to grow and thrive.

About Support Fenland

Hunts Forum and CCVS are excited to have been awarded Lloyds Bank Foundation funding to carry out a piece of work in Fenland. This project will reflect on the need and impact of tailored infrastructure support in the district.

This year-long project will comprise of several phases, exploring what infrastructure support looks like currently, what’s needed, how infrastructure support adapts to this need and giving a platform for community groups to express what they want moving forward.

As part of this, we hope to develop this site to house conversations, ideas and thoughts about these topics. This page will pull together the voice of those who serve, support and engage with Fenland’s voluntary and community sector.

We hope by the end of this year-long piece of work, there will be a demonstrated need for funded infrastructure within Fenland.
