Always Open Grants UK
Rolling grants have no closing date. The funder reads applications as they arrive and keeps the fund open until the budget is spent, which means you can prepare properly instead of racing a deadline. Community foundations, council ward budgets and wind farm community funds mostly work this way.

Frequently asked questions about rolling grants
What is a rolling grant?+
A rolling grant has no closing date. The funder assesses applications as they arrive and keeps the fund open until the money runs out or they choose to close it. Most community foundation funds and council ward budgets work this way.
How many UK grants have no deadline?+
933 of the grants listed on GrantMatch have no closing date today. That is the majority of the catalogue, which surprises most people: deadlines get the attention, but rolling funding is the larger pool.
Does no deadline mean there is no rush?+
Not quite. A rolling fund is usually capped for the year, so it closes when the budget is spent rather than on a date. Applying early in a funder’s financial year is generally better than applying late.
Can I apply to more than one at a time?+
Usually yes, unless a funder says otherwise. Check each one for restrictions on holding several of their grants at once, and on match funding from other sources.
