Core Grant Programme

Sheffield City Council offers core funding to help voluntary groups engage men in their communities. The grant supports partnerships and community groups running programmes that reduce male isolation and create social connections. You can use the money to stabilise and develop existing successful programmes. The funding aims to address the serious issue that 3 in 4 suicides are men. Your organisation must be based in Sheffield and work in the voluntary sector. The programme appears to run on a rolling basis with no fixed deadline. Funding amounts are not specified and will likely vary by project.

This grant is for voluntary sector organisations based in Sheffield. You should apply if you run programmes that engage men and help reduce isolation in your community. It is particularly suitable if you already have successful programmes that need ongoing funding to continue.

A multi-year grant fund supporting voluntary sector partners to provide information, advice and support to Sheffield residents. Core funding helps organisations pay for essential costs like salaries, rent, and utilities, providing stability and freedom to plan ahead. The programme is funded until March 2028.
