Bed race and beer festival success lead to grants in Knaresborough
Knaresborough Lions is inviting local organisations to apply for grants.
The Lions organises annual events such as Knaresborough Bed Race and the town's beer festival and is using funds raised to support organisations in Knaresborough, surrounding villages and the wider Nidderdale area.
The Lions Community Fund will award grants to one-off projects.
The charity advised applications “will be considered only from properly constituted organisations rather than from individuals".
Knaresborough Lions president Bob Godsell said:

Applicants are advised to indicate the costs of the proposed project and the amount of grant requested.
There is no upper limit to applications, but, in previous years, requests have ranged from £100 to £1,000.
Applications forms must be submitted by November 30 at 5pm.
