Cash prizes every month | Community awards every quarter!
October 2024 Awards
Community Fund Awards totalling £465 were made in October:
Marple Carnival 50 50 Community Fund were proud to present a donation of £155 to each of 3 local groups.
The pictures show Sharon, from Mellor Country House, and Brian, from Dragon Miniature Railway at Dobbies Garden Centre, both receiving their donations. The 3rd group is Friends of Etherow Park but due to other commitments they were not available for a photo and we have arranged for that to take place in early November.
The Marple Carnival 50 50 Community Fund is a brilliant way for you to help local groups like these and you have a chance to win some cash yourself in our monthly draw. Please see how to join or get more information further down the page.

The 50/50 Community Fund is a non profit scheme organised and run by Marple Carnival.
It’s a fun way of having a little flutter whilst supporting many groups in your local community.
Here's how it works..
You pay £5 per month subscription, which buys you a member number that enters you into the monthly draw.
50% of all subscriptions goes into the monthly draw.
*Based on 100 members each paying £5/month, the monthly prizes would be:
1st Prize £125 - 2nd Prize £75 - 3rd Prize £50
The remaining 50% of the fund will be donated to varying local good causes within Marple, Marple Bridge, Compstall, and Mellor.
