Mobile phone company Orange is seeking applications for its grants programme that
recognises and rewards grass-roots projects run to benefit people with sensory disabilities.

The Orange community futures awards is a grants scheme designed to support local
community projects that use communication creatively to enable people with sensory
disabilities to participate more fully in society. The awards scheme, now in its
second year, forms part of Orange’s wider community investment programme and corporate
responsibility strategy.
