We like to turn local people's ideas into reality! If you live or work in Southwark, you can apply for changes that you would like to see in your area. From something as small as planting bulbs in a park or a housing estate, to larger projects such as replacing an old playground, or safety measures like lighting or pedestrian crossings - it's up to you!

For the past eleven years the CGS programme has funded only capital projects such as creating new and refurbishing existing ball courts, installing new railings and fencing, and improving lighting. Now, with the addition of the CGS Revenue fund, projects such as extra street cleaning, gardening courses for residents and other maintenance type projects, will also be considered for funding. Groups that can deliver a project themselves can be considered for a grant.

Applications for both CGS capital and revenue can be made using the same form, and successful applications will be allocated to the appropriate fund by council officers.

For information about some completed projects in your area, please choose your area from the list on the left.

The closing date for applications for this year's programme is Friday 8 November 2013. Decisions on the applications will be announced at community council meetings in January and February 2014. Applicants will be notified by letter after this.

Thanks mynamehere!


Hi Flower, I've checked the link and it's working from my computer.

You do not need to do detailed costings as council officers will do that, so don't worry if you are no sure how much it will cost to implement your ideas.

'Groups that can deliver a project themselves can be considered for a grant.'


this allows people who would never get a paid commision to use council funds to fund their work.

    • Strongly recommend Oskar and his excellent team- They've just completed the demolition and removal of our precarious cracked  brick boundary walls, fences and concrete paving in our exhausted front garden. They levelled the site and re-established the appropriate gradients with stone substrates before installing  excellent new paving, a new brick wall and new fencing - even approved by our neighbour- as well as new beds for our planting plans.  Oskar is a good communicator and kept us informed at all points, adjusting plans as necessary and always finding solutions.  Previous works by Oskars on the back garden 4 years ago were excellent and have stood the test of time. Strongly recommended. 
    • if small family homes are priced at £2.000.000 in SE22 I suspect they are over priced.
    • That's exactly my point Ian. The council will collect on behalf of the government. Not on behalf of themselves. The government then decides how and where it is spent.  So poor people in Southwark might end up paying Southwark to collect the government's mansion tax and watch the government then squander that money anywhere else they see fit.  I really do hope the government reimburse the council for collecting this tax on their behalf.   As regards villas in Burbage road, I'm actually talking about two small family homes currently on sale on my road in Se22 for about £2m. No doubt neither will now be saleable and this government will miss out on £155,000 of stamp duty tax that will be payable on these mansions when they eventually sell under another government that cancels this capricious folly.
