BURNTWOOD Town Council is seeking views on how it should prioritise grants to support the local community.

For the past two years, the authority has focused on projects working with young people along with mental health and wellbeing support for adults.

They were chosen after residents highlighted them as being areas of need.

Ahead of a new round of investment, the council is now seeking views on where grants should be focused in future.

Cllr Sue Woodward, chair of Burntwood Town Council, said:

"The Better Burntwood Fund makes a real difference here in our town – and this consultation gives all residents an opportunity to shape what additional services are needed here.

"We want to ensure we reflect your priorities so please take a few minutes to tell us about what is important to you and how we should spend this next round of funding."

People can share their views by completing a survey here.

Grants cannot be used in some areas due to funding being available from other sources, such as as statutory services like schools, GP surgeries, road repairs and emergency services.
