Castle Cary & Ansford Carnival Society / News  / Applying for a donation

Applying for a donation

Thanks to your generosity, we are able to give donations from the carnival collection to local charitable organisations.   To apply read the CCACS Donations Leaflet 2021 and then submit your application by 17th December 2021.  Or pick up a Donations Leaflet from Heathers Flowers, High Street, Castle Cary.

Key information

  • Donations will be made primarily to groups whose operating base falls within a 5 mile radius of Castle Cary Market House. Exceptions might be Somerset-based projects (which include benefits to our parishes) such as The Air Ambulance, St Margaret’s Hospice, etc.
  • Other than in exceptional circumstances, donations will be made to fund, wholly or partly, specified projects or items of equipment of a permanent or semi-permanent nature, and not to meet everyday running expenses.
  • Your application must be received by 17 December 2021We regret that any non-urgent requests received after this date cannot be considered until after Cary Carnival 2022
  • The Society takes into account any practical help it receives from groups when considering applications.  However, this is by no means a condition of making an award (nor does it necessarily secure an award).
