This grant programme supports small, grass roots organisations with an income of between £20k – £500k. Organisations are embedded in the community, working within the most deprived areas of the UK.
They fund established organisations with a track record of delivering services directly to beneficiaries and want to fund work that enables:
- People from across the community to participate in activities which improve connectedness, opportunities and wellbeing
- People who are excluded, vulnerable or facing other forms of hardship to have access to community-based services that support positive lasting change
- Â A stronger, active, more engaged community.
Grants £20k – £70k per year over 3 years with no deadlines to submit applications. Funding covers running costs. They primarily fund registered charities but are willing to make grants to other types of not for profit organisations, such as Community Interest Companies (CICs) or constituted community groups.
