We have £5,000 up for grabs, to support a community project, event, activity or service, that will benefit the people and communities of Salford.
Do you have an idea, event, project or service that would benefit from our support? To be in with a chance of winning a share of £5000, simply complete our online application form below.
Entries close on the 17th of November. We will review all the applications and invite six people to pitch their ideas to the people of Salford to win - 1st prize £3000, 2nd prize £1000 plus four runners up prizes of £250.
Please tell us a bit more about why you would like to come and pitch for funding from the Irwell Valley Foundation.
