Local community groups and organisations in Redbridge can create and fund projects which celebrate and improve their local areas. The council will have some match-funding available to pledge towards local crowdfunding projects through the Neighbourhood Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL), as long as projects meet the selection criteria and there are sufficient available funds.

Local community groups can bid for projects that vary in pledge scale from under £1,000 for smaller projects, up to £20,000 for larger projects.

Members of the public can show their support for projects by “liking” them, and by pledging financial donations and/or volunteer time in project wishlists.
