Bolton's Fund 2040: Partnership Grants

Project grants of up to £35,000 from Bolton's Fund 2040 Partnership Grants, run by Bolton CVS, for two to six voluntary, community or social enterprise organisations working together on a project delivered in Bolton for Bolton residents. Partners don't need to be based in Bolton, and the lead partner must show it can manage a grant of this size. Every application must address at least one Bolton 2040 priority: family-friendly, thriving, inclusive, supportive, safe and protected, or healthy. Set-up or extension costs, admin, room hire, staff and volunteer costs, specialist trainers, transport and essential equipment up to £1,000 an item can be funded. Each organisation can be in one partnership grant at a time. Rounds close every two months while funds last, with the next after 1 November on 3 January 2027. Applications close on 1 November 2026.
