Local people from each area can vote for the projects they like best. The votes are counted and money will be awarded on the day. A spokesperson for the Federation said: "We expected there will be more applications than there we have funding for, therefore, not everyone can be successful. However we will point you in the direction of other bodies or agencies that may be able to assist you to access alternative funding sources."
