Hampole Wind Farm Community Benefit Fund

GrantScape (funded by Bluefield Solar Income Fund)

The Hampole Community Benefit Fund offers grants to support local charitable causes near Hampole Wind Farm, close to Doncaster in South Yorkshire. The money comes from Bluefield Solar Income Fund, the investment company behind the four-turbine wind farm, and the fund is run through GrantScape. Bluefield puts around £10,000 into the fund each year, rising with inflation, for the lifetime of the wind farm. You can apply for a grant of between £250 and £10,000. The fund suits charities and community groups working for the benefit of the area around the wind farm. If your group runs a local project with a charitable purpose near Hampole, this fund is worth a look. There is one application round each year. The current round closes at midnight on 7 April 2027, and decisions are due by the end of June 2027. Extra rounds may open if the year's money is not all allocated. Plan your timing carefully. You will not hear whether you have been successful until the end of June 2027, so this fund works best for projects that can wait until the summer for their money. The yearly pot is around £10,000 in total, so a single grant at the top of the range would use the whole year's budget. You can also see which organisations have received grants before, which may help you shape your application. Official source: https://grantscape.org.uk/fund/hampole/.
