getting money for eastfield

I went to the Area committee meeting to night and there was only one application from a group in Eastfield.
Despite telling so many groups about this fund why is it that so few make the effort to put pen to paper and submit a bid?
Eastfield junior football club were fortunate to get £1000.00 but they were the only applicants from Eastfield. Meanwhile many organisations especially those from Filey were granted thousands of pounds.
Wake up Eastfield and get asking. You wont get the cash if you don't ask
