GRASSROOTS organisations helping communities through the coronavirus lockdown can apply for grants through a special fund set up by Manchester Airport.
The Airport's Community Trust Fund already supports scores of local groups every year, with grants to improve local communities.
In response to the impact the Covid-19 pandemic is having on society, its trustees have agreed its next round of funding will be dedicated to organisations helping communities through the crisis.
Charities or not-for-profit organisations within a 10-mile radius of the airport can lodge applications until May 26.
