To help make our communities better places for everyone to live and ensure a balance between areas of community need, the TSB Community Trust’s strategic plan identifies key programme funding areas.
All applications requesting funding over $5,000 will be assessed against these strategic objectives. The applicant will need to describe how their project will meet these objectives and provide evidence to support how they will meet the objectives.
