How to get involved

If you have an idea for a project to improve the culture or sport offer in your local community, then you could get up to £15,000 towards your target from the Lancashire Culture and Sport Fund. 

Crowdfund Lancashire gives local communities and individuals a chance to create and support the projects which matter most to them. It will enable everyone to contribute towards their community - chipping in as little as £2 to help bring ideas to life. 

We are working in partnership with Spacehive to create, fund and deliver your project idea. Spacehive are the UK's leading community crowdfunding platform. Please note Spacehive may make operational decisions that are outside Lancashire County Council's control but the Crowdfund Lancashire team endeavour to communicate these changes to donors and project creators.

Funding available 

Organisations could get up to £15,000 to boost projects towards their funding target. Parish and Town Councils can take part too, with up to £5,000 available. Individuals with ideas and businesses who want to benefit their community could get £1,500 towards their live crowdfunding campaigns. There is a simplified application method for individuals. 

Pledge support for your community 

With pledges starting at £2, there is an opportunity for everyone across the county to get involved by supporting projects in your local area.  

Communities can have a say in what happens where they live and an opportunity for businesses to show support for their local culture and sport groups.
