Community Fund

The Framfield and Blackboys Summer Show is supported and enjoyed by many in the villages and each year one-third of the profit is used to fund deserving projects in the community.

In 2017 the money, together with funding from the Parish Council, was used to plant a Red Oak tree on each of the recreation grounds to mark the centenary of the end of the First World War.

Funding from the 2018 Show was divided between ‘The Framfield and

Blackboys Monday Club’ and ‘The Framfield Stagers’; each receiving £200.

From the 2019 Summer Show £300 was available and was awarded to Framfield School PFTA in June 2020 who applied for £50 and  £250 was awarded to  Blackboys pre-School.

From the 2022/23 Summer Shows £900 was available and was awarded as follows:

Framfield  Parish Council £250 to upgrade the Village Hall lights to LED

Framfield  Pre-School £100  Purchasing bulbs, seedlings, plant pots, compost to further enhance the outdoor provision 

Uckfield Food Bank £350  To support local families and individuals who are struggling in the current economic climate, particularly during the school holidays 

Friends of Sussex Hospices £120  To purchase craft materials for children’s activities at the Gruffalo event at Framfield Grange 

We currently have £1010 funding available from the  2024 summer show. Please don't miss out.

Applications need to be submitted by 31st March 2025 and if awarded, funding can start from April 2025.
