From the City Council :
Dundee City Council has allocated money from its Common Good Fund to continue its grant scheme to support groups that wish to organise community events to celebrate Hogmanay.
Applications are invited from Dundee based community groups and cultural organisations which are planning to organise non-commercial celebrations to mark Hogmanay. The celebrations do not have to be on Hogmanay itself, but can take place between Saturday, 29th December 2018 and Thursday, 3rd January 2019.
This year, we are particularly looking for applications that :
– Involve a wide range of the local community
– Give a sense that it is Hogmanay that is being celebrated
– Have the potential to develop community spirit and additional joint activities going forward into 2019
The application form can be found at www.tinyurl.com/hogmanay-dundee or requested via email to Paul Davies paul.davies@dundeecity.gov.uk.
The closing date for applications is Sunday 30th September, and the decision making group will then meet in October.
