Community Funding is Now Open!

As you may have heard, the Community Fund opens from 18^th January 2021 until 12^th February 2021; enabling community groups to apply for fantastic grants up to £2000.

This year, in order to increase the diversity of groups applying for our grants, and to complement our Connected Communities strategy, we are targeting a number of different community groups to prioritise funding. So, if you know of any community contacts who may have projects related to the topics below please consider signposting them towards our grants!

Spread the message!

Word of mouth really counts though, so help us spread the message through your Regional Communities or Keep it Local sites. As a community-minded society, we want to support colleagues who are making a real difference in their community.

Interested and want to apply? Please use the link below to complete the online application.

• Community Fund will open for applications on Monday 18^th January 2021

To celebrate our Values in Action and to highlight to our Members the way our community donations are distributed and how they make a difference locally, please note that all successful applicants may be asked, as part of their acceptance of their grant to provide updates or to attend one of our events to discuss the impact the fund has made.

If you care about it, then so do we!
