A community centre is among 46 organisations across the south east to receive a share of more than £300,000 funding from the National Lottery.
The Sunlight Centre in Richmond Road, Gillingham, has been given £9,928 from the Big Lottery Awards For All scheme.

The initiative offers grants of between £300 and £10,000 to social and environmental projects that will benefit local communities and make a difference to the lives of those most in need.
Alison Rowe, Big Lottery Fund head of region for the south east, is calling for more projects to apply for funding.
She said: “This is the season of goodwill, and also of fresh starts. Combine the two, and you get community projects that make a difference to so many people, and we’re only too pleased to be able to support them.
“This month, we’ve helped 46 projects see in a brighter year ahead with a share in more than £325,000 and you could be next. Now is the time to gather your ideas and get your applications in.”
