A care home has launched a community fund to support local initiatives.
Moorhill care home on Moorhill Road, West End, is encouraging community groups, charities, and organisations to apply for the £1,000 fund.
Applicants should be based in or around Southampton and must outline the services they provide and how the money will be used.
Nicky Barnes, operations director at Hartford Care, said: "Our company ethos is ‘Creating Caring Communities’, with our philosophy of care underpinned by creating communities that are friendly, kind and welcoming of everyone, caring for each other and celebrating individuality by recognising that everyone needs something different to thrive.
"We look forward to hearing from the fantastic organisations in our neighbourhood."
Applications close on June 11 at midnight.
The winning initiative will be informed and a celebratory reception will be held at Moorhill for staff and the organisation on July 3.
