COVID-19 grant funding from Devon County Council - Lockdown 3
Devon County Council is, for the third time, re-opening the COVID-19 Fund to provide flexible resources to organisations working with communities who are extremely vulnerable or disproportionately impacted by coronavirus and the social and economic consequences of this current national lockdown.
Guidance can be found on this link along with the online application form. www.devon.gov.uk/coronavirus-advice-in-devon/document/covid-19-fund/
The biggest difference to the first two waves is that DCC is working in partnership with Devon Community Foundation to fund food projects. So any project that is for food provision needs to apply here devoncf.com/apply/community-food-programme-2/
If you feel your project fits the criteria, please apply and feel free to share with your networks.
Best wishes,
COVID-19 Fund Team

This is divisive and unnecessary in our small community. The ramifications of this will potentially last long after the issue of Covid. I would rather see action against shops, namely Tesco, who have staff abusing customers who are mask exempt. I have witnesses 3 disgusting altercations in the last 10 days and when I stepped in on an elderly mans behalf, drawing attention to the Equality Act, which all staff have apparently been briefed on, I was called rude by the employee. This is illegal and I would rather the Town Council published help on how to deal with these law breakers in the courts. My complaint to Tesco head office pends.
big brother is watching us .as above no way would i get on with this
I'm sorry, but I can't get on board with this. Reporting your neighbours to the state entrenches a pattern of behaviour that will continue long after the crisis is over.
Do we really want to live in a police state where we're all encouraged to be suspicious of each other and report our suspicions to the police?
Seaton Town Council understands the difficulties faced by local businesses, voluntary and community groups as a result of the ongoing lockdown restrictions. The Council still has provision within its 2020/21 budget to consider applications for its Shop Front Improvement Grant and Community Grant schemes. If you would like to apply, please ensure applications are received by Wednesday 24th February to enable consideration at the Council’s meeting on 1 March 2021. A new allocation will be available in next year’s budget.
Details of the schemes can be found on the Town Council’s website at seaton.gov.uk/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Chapter-18-Shop-Front-Improvement-Scheme.pdf and at seaton.gov.uk/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Chapter-16-Community-Grants-Scheme.pdf
Please send any queries and completed applications to assistant@seaton.gov.uk.

Seaton to Colyford Multi-Use Path
For more information please contact us at admin@seaton.gov.uk and details can be sent to you electronically.
Great news! The road in its current condition is dangerous as there is no safe way to walk on Colford Road.
This would be Amazing, always wanted this to happen, but I just can't get to excited about it because things seem to not happen in this town, I will keep everything crossed 😁
Is this a real thing? Or just another ambition for Never Never Land?
Excellent.
Great news 😄
If I’m understanding this information correctly it would allow much safer access from the Primary School to the excellent facilities at the education/information centre at Seaton Wetlands amongst other benefits to the wider population. 👏👏👏
A lovely thank you letter from the Director of one of our local community groups, Re:Store Axe Valley CIC ......
