We’re here to support communities with the things that are important to them, including mitigating the impact of the cost-of-living crisis and supporting them as they seek to recover, rebuild and grow following the Covid-19 pandemic.

In order to support communities, we fund projects and organisations which aim to:

– build strong relationships in and across communities
– improve the places and spaces that matter to communities
– help more people to reach their potential, by supporting them at the earliest possible stage.

You can expect us to be flexible and responsive to your community’s needs:

– whether you need long- or shorter-term funding
– whether your request is for a particular activity or to create more fundamental change
– whether the funding is to support a single organisation or to bring organisations together.
– support for people, communities and organisations that are facing increased demands and challenges as direct result of the cost-of-living crisis
– support for organisations so that they can address the immediate issues that are impacting their delivery as a direct result of the cost-of-living crisis during this year and future years.
