MACCLESFIELD: The Co-op is looking for local groups to apply for its next round of the Local Community Fund.

A new survey from Co-op reveals 53% of local community causes have seen available funding decrease in past 12 months, with three quarters expecting demand for their services to increase.

This year, Co-op's Local Community Fund has helped over 4,500 local causes up and down the UK.

TS Ardent Bollington and Macclesfield Sea Cadets are certainly a good example of this.

The importance of local communities supporting local causes in the borough has been highlighted by Lt. Karen Black and Jason Gaunt of the TS Ardent Bollington and Macclesfield Sea Cadets.

Bollington and Macclesfield Sea Cadets is a local cause that is receiving much needed funds from the Co-op's Local Community Fund, thanks to Co-op Members.
