Overview

The Social Investment Fund for London is run by City Bridge Foundation. It supports London's social entrepreneurs, enterprises and impact-driven businesses. The aim is to help create a capital where communities can prosper and thrive. Applications are open now, and there is no closing date. You can apply at any time. The work needs to be in Greater London. The page describes the funding as ongoing, with £22m available across the whole fund. The foundation lists social investment as one of several ways it funds, alongside responsive and strategic grants, partnerships and enterprise support. The £22m is the size of the whole fund. It is not the amount each organisation will receive. The fund is open to established social purpose organisations. That is the main caveat to keep in mind before you start an application. City Bridge Foundation launched Standing with Londoners in 2025. This is its ten-year funding policy, and it focuses on advancing social justice across the capital. The foundation says its approach is designed to be accessible, fair and built on trust. Other programmes on the same page have their own deadlines, but this one stays open.
