The Best Guide for the Neston Area

Got a Local Project? Let the Neston Fund Help

Set up five years ago by a group of local businessmen who really wanted to make a difference in their local area, the Neston & District Community Fund has been helping to support a broad range of charities and community groups doing amazing work across CH64 ever since.

From the isolated elderly to young families struggling to cope, scout troops to arts groups, the Fund has helped to support some truly fantastic projects touching the lives of hundreds of members of the local community.

Neston Angels, based at Neston Community Youth Centre, has received support from the Neston & District Community Fund. Pictured here is Dy Brown, on his 87th Birthday, who calls all of the Neston Angels clients every week to check they are OK.

Thanks to the continuing generosity of local businesses and individuals, there are now further funds available to distribute as small grants to charities and grass roots organisations in the area.

In addition to established groups and charities, the Fund can also help to seed-fund new and fledgling groups, and in some cases, where there is a recognised need but no local service provider, established charities from neighbouring towns and villages can be encouraged to bring the work they do to the Neston area.
