PB Application Support

A step by step guide to submitting your PB application

Participatory budgeting (PB for short) is a democratic, community-led approach to financial decision making. Rather than Council staff making the decisions on the projects to be funded, we invite local organisations to submit their ideas for projects and then hand over to local people to vote on the things that matter most to them.

Our annual small grant PB processes distribute grants of between £1000 and £2000 (dependent on the fund) to local community and voluntary orgasniations working across North Ayrshire on a range of projects from community gardens to art installations and everything in between.

If your organisation would like to apply for PB funding, our step by step guide below will help you submit a good application.
