We are delighted the the EMA Community Fund has approved our application for a Grant to purchase 53 Synapptic Memory Stick Players.
The EMA Community Fund was established in April 2002 and has granted over £2 million to more than 1,700 projects.
The Community Fund is a separate fund that is managed independently by the Community Fund Committee. The money in the Fund comes from a substantial annual donation from East Midlands Airport together with surcharges and fines levied against aircraft that exceed strict noise limits. The surcharges and fines increase the money available to the Fund, together with encouraging the airlines to operate more responsibly and use quieter aircraft. The Community Fund awards grants of up to £2,000 to support eligible projects within our ‘Area of Benefit’ that have long lasting community, social or environmental benefits.
