Worcester community groups have been warned that the deadline to apply for a share of a housebuilder's £7,500 funding scheme is looming.

Redrow Midlands has urged groups and organisations to submit applications for their community fund before Friday, September 27.

Elaine Cartwright, sales director at the housebuilder, said: "As the fund comes into its final weeks, we are urging charities and community groups to apply for a chance to secure their share of the pot.

"No cause is too small, and we really want to make a difference, so apply now to avoid missing out."
