Your Pots 2025
The Pots of Possibility ‘Your Pots’ fund is giving grants of between £5000 and £10,000 to local projects that can help regenerate North Lancashire’s environment and build healthy thriving communities across our district.
Everyone asking for funding is working with us to make videos about their projects, which will be available on this page from 7 November.
Twelve organisations applied for grants this year, and they will gather together with members of the public at The Storey on 15 November for the 2025 Your Pots Your Say Voting Day.
The Your Pots Your Say event is now sold out (you can join the waitlist via Trybooking if you’d still like to try to attend), so why not vote online instead?
Online Voting
Online voting will be available this year, so if you can’t attend the voting day in person, you can still support your favourite projects.
Votes cast online will be worth one-third of votes made at the Your Pots Your Say Event, and we have implemented some controls to reduce potential for manipulation:
- We’ll collect the name, address, telephone number and email for each voter. We’ll remove these from our systems once we’ve verified the voting process.
- We’ll only accept votes from addresses in the Lancaster district (that’s anywhere on this map).
- Only two votes will be accepted per address and they must be in different names.
Online voting will be available between 9am on 8 November 2025 and 9am on 13 November 2025.
