Strengthening community spirit in Stanford in the Vale

Stanford in the Vale Public Purposes Charity (PPC) is a registered charity with origins dating back to the 18th century. It manages a portfolio of funds, from which it receives a regular income.

The PPC awards grants to applicants whose activities and funding requests align with our mandate: to serve the broader interests of the local community and to steward our resources for future generations.

The PPC is also responsible for the management of the village allotments.
