Introduction
It’s always been our intention to use surplus funds (profits) for good causes within our community. The Management Committee is delighted to open another annual round of Uley Community Spirit grants, a scheme which distributes a portion of our profits to Uley and Owlpen charitable organisations by application.

How it works
How it works
UCS provides grants to its community’s charitable organisations for projects or equipment that will benefit Uley and Owlpen residents.
The amount of money available is determined as a percentage of our previous year’s operating profits, and we aim to distribute the money this year by the end of February 2024.
Application forms may be downloaded from the link below and completed forms should be submitted by Wednesday 31st January 2024. We hope to notify applicants of the decision by mid February 2024.
