COMMUNITY groups within the Bere Peninsula can benefit from some cash funding, thanks to a local running club.

Following the success of the Bere Pen 10k in May, Bere Alston Trekkers (BATs) have £600 available to community groups in the area.

Groups who require funding for a project, equipment or anything else should email their details, including what the money will be used for and who it will benefit and whether they have any other funding, to [email protected]">[email protected]

The BATs are keen to share the money as far as they can. Groups will have until December 31 to apply and money will be awarded in January.
