THE PEOPLE'S MILLIONS ARE BACK!
- Got a great idea for a project to inspire your community?
- Want to involve local people working together to tackle a problem?
- Know what you want to do but need some money to make it happen?
The People's Millions could be the answer!
The Big Lottery Fund and UTV are looking for new projects that will improve local places and the lives of people in your community.
In November 2013 UTV Live will feature two great project ideas in Northern Ireland each night for three nights, competing for viewers' phone votes. At stake is up to £50,000 from the Big Lottery Fund.
To have a chance of winning you'll need to inspire local people to get involved with your project. It'll also need to capture the public's imagination and persuade them to vote for you.
The People's Millions have £3.8m to give out across the UK this year, and expect to make four awards in Northern Ireland.
