Birmingham City Council awarded a contract to locality for the Celebrating Communities small grant program, a universal grant initiative tied to the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games.

The program enabled communities across every ward in Birmingham to carry out localised activities such as street parties, picnics, and community celebrations in the lead-up to and during the Games.

Funding was allocated across three themes: Getting Active, which encouraged physical activity and wellbeing; Ready, Steady, Fun, which supported Games-ready community projects and celebrations to reduce loneliness and social isolation; and Celebrating Culture, which promoted community-led cultural events and intergenerational activities.

The contract value was AUD 83,300.
