Parish councils, community groups and schools are among those who can apply for funds
Groups can bid for North West Leicestershire District Council's King's Coronation grants of up to £250.Meanwhile, individuals are being offered coronation packs, which include bunting and crockery.Paul Sanders, head of community services at the council, urged people to get their applications in quickly.
He said: "We've got a budget of just about £10,000, which we think is really good, but half of that money has already gone as we've had quite a lot of groups apply. "If you're a parish council, a voluntary group or school you can apply for up to £250 to help stage your event. "If you're a collection of residents who want to get together, you can apply for a pack of sustainable cups and saucers, which are also recyclable.
"These little amounts of money can really create a sense of community, pride and togetherness, and I think this is the time to do it."
