Two Ridings Community Foundation

Up to £1,000

This fund offers microgrants of up to £1,000 to local groups in the area around the Fraisthorpe Wind Farm in the East Riding of Yorkshire. The money comes from Octopus Solutions, the wind farm's developers, and Two Ridings Community Foundation runs the scheme. The fund backs projects that improve quality of life and community resources for local residents. Priority goes to projects that enhance residents' quality of life, help build vibrant, healthy, successful and sustainable communities, and promote community spirit and community activity. It suits voluntary organisations, community groups, small charities and other not-for-profit organisations with charitable aims. You must be based in, or serve people living in, the parish council areas of Barmston and Fraisthorpe and Carnaby, or the part of the Bridlington town council area south of Bessingby Road (A1038) and Hilderthorpe Road (B1254). You can apply for a microgrant at any time. There is no set deadline. The Foundation aims to give you a decision within 12 weeks of receiving your fully completed application. One practical point: your application is only complete once all your supporting documents have arrived, so send them with your form. Larger grants of between £1,001 and £15,000 are closed at the moment. The page says the next larger grant round will open in 2027.

Knabs Ridge Wind Farm Community Fund - Microgrants

Two Ridings Community Foundation

Up to £700

The Knabs Ridge Wind Farm Community Fund offers microgrants of up to £700 for local projects near Harrogate. It is a community benefit fund provided by RWE Renewables and managed by Two Ridings Community Foundation. The microgrant strand is open now, and you can apply at any time. The fund backs activities that improve quality of life for local residents, help build vibrant, healthy and sustainable communities, and encourage community spirit and activity. Past awards have paid for refurbishments and renovations to community buildings, and for new equipment for playgroups, drama clubs, sports facilities and play areas. It has also supported a graveyard recording project in Hampsthwaite. It suits small local charities and voluntary and community groups based in the parishes of Felliscliffe, Hampsthwaite, Birstwith, Norwood, Darley and Menwith, Haverah Park with Beckwithshaw, and Washburn. Parish councils can apply too, if the project is wholly charitable and falls outside their usual remit. If you plan to repeat the same work, you can apply for up to £700 a year for up to three years in a single application. Make this clear in your application if you do. One practical point: the foundation aims to decide within 12 weeks of receiving your fully completed application. If your project is an event, apply at least 12 weeks beforehand so payment can be made in time. Larger grants are closed for now and are due to reopen during 2027.

Express Grant Programme

Quartet Community Foundation

Up to £5,000

The Express Grant Programme from Quartet Community Foundation supports local grassroots groups and small to medium sized organisations working with communities that face inequality and disadvantage. It is open for applications all year, so there is no closing date to work towards. The programme funds activities, projects and services that help people affected by economic disadvantage, such as poverty, unemployment or low income. It also funds work that improves access to appropriate and affordable services and support for people who are currently excluded or underserved. The communities can be geographic, or groups brought together by race or ethnicity, age, disability, gender or sexual orientation. You can ask for up to £5,000. The average grant is around £4,000. You can apply for a new activity or to continue something you already do. Grants can cover core or running costs, project and activity costs, and capital costs such as equipment or refurbishment. You should plan to start spending the grant within six months of it being awarded. You must be based and working in Bristol, Bath and North-East Somerset, North Somerset or South Gloucestershire. The foundation prioritises organisations with an income under £1 million, and particularly those under £0.5 million. A practical point to know: funds are limited, and currently 54% of applications are successful. The foundation aims to fully fund requests but may occasionally award part of the amount. Decisions usually take up to 8 weeks, and may take up to 10 weeks at busy times. Some criteria changed from 1 May 2026, so read the Guide for Applicants before you apply.

North Somerset Community Transport Grant

Quartet Community Foundation

£20 - £500

The North Somerset Community Transport Grant from Quartet Community Foundation helps local transport schemes cover costs they did not plan for. It is open for applications all year, so you can apply when the need arises. The grant suits community transport groups and volunteer car schemes that help North Somerset residents with limited mobility get around. Groups with a section 19 or section 22 permit that run fully accessible minibuses can apply. So can car schemes where volunteer drivers use their own vehicles, mainly to take people to medical appointments. Grants are between £20 and £500. The funder says these schemes are expected to run themselves, but sometimes face costs on top of their ongoing running costs. You can ask for a contribution towards one or more items. These include insurance, such as an unexpected rise in premiums, unplanned vehicle or building maintenance, telephone or software installation and upgrades, Blue Badge application charges, specific promotional activity, driver and staff training, DBS checks for new drivers or staff, new community projects or initiatives, and any other unexpected spending. Applications that show match funding will be looked on favourably. One practical point: the funder may not be able to pay the whole cost of what you ask for, so it helps to plan how you would cover any gap. You apply online, and you can save your form and return to it as often as you need. Please read the guide for applicants before you start.

Essex Community Foundation General Grants

Essex Community Foundation

Funding amount not listed

Essex Community Foundation accepts grant applications all year round, so you can apply when you are ready. If your charity, voluntary or community organisation is based or working in Essex and needs financial support, the foundation may be able to help. Its team works to match your funding needs with the criteria of one of the many charitable funds it manages. As well as these year-round programmes, the foundation runs specific funds and programmes that open at different times during the year. Its Current Grant Opportunities page shows which of these are open now. Before you start, the foundation recommends booking a call with one of its Grants Officers. They can talk through your project, advise on eligibility and explain which funds currently have money available. This can help you decide whether to apply before you spend time on a full application. You can also try the quick eligibility quiz and read the help and guidance for applicants. One practical point: your application is matched to a fund with its own criteria, so the right fit depends on what you need the money for and where your work happens. Talking to the team first is the best way to find out. The foundation also has a small amount of funding for individuals who live, or have lived, in Essex, Southend or Thurrock. This mainly helps children and young adults where money is a barrier. It uses a separate route from the organisation application.

NNS Digital Fund

Heart of England Community Foundation

Up to £2,000

The NNS Digital Fund offers grants of up to £2,000 to help organisations become more digitally inclusive. It is part of the Digital Neighbourhood Network Scheme (DNNS), a digital project run by Northfield Community Partnership and commissioned by Birmingham City Council's Prevention & Communities team in the Adult Social Care Directorate. You can ask for money for projects in three areas: marketing, training and internet connectivity. The wider aim is to help older citizens and citizens with long-term disabilities get access to essential digital tools, tech and services. The fund also wants to inspire communities to do more to be digitally inclusive. The scheme works with the city's 10 Neighbourhood Network Schemes, one in each constituency. It also supports local community groups and organisations, as well as social workers and social prescribers, to build their digital skills and confidence. That helps them offer the right digital support to the people they serve. This fund suits organisations that want to help local people get online or use digital services with confidence, and whose project fits one of the three funding areas. One practical step comes first. You must contact the NNS Digital team at info@digitalnns.org.uk before you submit your application. This will be checked with the team when your application is assessed. Please also read the Fund Factsheet before you apply. Official source: https://www.heartofenglandcf.org/digital-neighbourhood-network-scheme-dnns/. Last checked by GrantMatch on 16 October 2026.

Grants for environmental activities

Community Foundation Tyne & Wear and Northumberland

Up to £7,000

Community Foundation Tyne & Wear and Northumberland runs many funds across the North East. This listing points to its main apply page. The fund on that page closest to environmental activity is The Curtin PARP Fund, which supports "Passionate About Realising Potential in environmental/green careers". The Curtin PARP Fund is open to both organisations and individuals. Awards are up to £7,000. It is a rolling grant, so you can apply at any time rather than waiting for a closing date. It covers Gateshead, Newcastle, Northumberland, North Tyneside, South Tyneside and Sunderland. If no current fund matches your plans, the foundation encourages a general application instead. As long as your organisation is in Tyne and Wear or Northumberland, you can make one at any time of year. Before you apply for the first time, you will need an account on the foundation's grantee portal. The page also offers eligibility information for new applicants, a set of FAQs and a Help and Support page if you need a hand with your application. One practical point to bear in mind: The Curtin PARP Fund does not list County Durham or Tees Valley among its areas, so organisations based there should look at the foundation's other funds or check that their location fits before spending time on an application.

Small & Vital Fund

Berkshire Community Foundation

Up to £1,000

The Small & Vital Fund from Berkshire Community Foundation offers quick, flexible support to small community groups. It is open for applications all year round, so there is no deadline to work towards. You can apply for up to £1,000, subject to funding availability. The fund is for organisations that need a small amount of money to keep their work going or to respond to local needs. It is open to a wide range of projects. These include bringing people together and reducing isolation, providing education and training, supporting people facing challenges or disadvantage, improving wellbeing, confidence or life skills, offering practical help, and strengthening the community. This fund suits very small organisations. Your annual income must be £10,000 or less. You must have been operating for at least 12 months and be able to provide 12 months of financial records, such as annual accounts. Your project must be based primarily in Berkshire. Individuals cannot apply, and the fund will not cover costs you have already incurred. When reviewing applications, the Foundation looks at the difference your project will make, your connection to the community you serve, how realistic your plans are, the level of need you are responding to, and any previous BCF funding and outstanding monitoring reports. One thing to keep in mind: the Foundation receives many more applications than it has funding for, and it cannot guarantee that any application will succeed.

HIWCF Community Group Grants

Hampshire and Isle of Wight Community Foundation

£1,000 - £5,000

The Hampshire and Isle of Wight Community Foundation (HIWCF) runs an annual calendar of themed grant programmes. They aim to build thriving communities across Hampshire, Southampton, Portsmouth and the Isle of Wight. The foundation focuses on smaller, grassroots organisations. Generally, it makes grants of between £1,000 and £5,000 to non-profit organisations. These include charities, charitable incorporated organisations, companies limited by guarantee, CICs limited by guarantee and constituted community organisations. This page is a general overview rather than a single fund. Each programme has its own criteria, so you will need to look at the details of the open programme you are interested in. You can subscribe on the page to get alerts when new funding opportunities open. The page does not give a deadline for the group grants. It does not say whether a programme is open today. Competition is strong. Demand for grants exceeds the funds available, and the foundation can often fund less than half the applications it receives. It is worth reading the application guidance, FAQs and grant policy before you apply. If you need advice or support with an application, you can call the Grants Team on 01962 798700 or email Grantsadmin@hiwcf.com. The foundation also makes grants to individuals, but it does not currently offer hardship grants for individuals. Official source: https://hiwcf.org.uk/grants/.

Supporting people with practical cost-of-living interventions in North East England

Community Foundation Tyne & Wear and Northumberland

Up to £7,500

The Mayor's Opportunity Fund supports people with practical cost-of-living interventions across North East England. It is run by Community Foundation Tyne & Wear and Northumberland, and it is listed on the funder's page as a grant for organisations. You can ask for up to £7,500. The page does not give a minimum award. The fund is a rolling grant. That means the funder lists it as open without a closing date, so you do not need to work to a fixed deadline. It covers County Durham, Gateshead, Newcastle, Northumberland, North Tyneside, South Tyneside and Sunderland. Tees Valley is not on the list of areas for this fund, so check that your work takes place in one of the seven named areas before you go any further. The funder asks first-time applicants to read its eligibility information and to register for an account on its grantee portal before applying. Plan time for this, because you cannot apply without an account. The funder also offers a Help and Support page and a set of FAQs if you need a hand with your application. One practical point to keep in mind: the listing on the funder's page is brief. It names the fund and the maximum grant, but the detail of what counts as a practical cost-of-living intervention sits behind the Read more link. Look at that fund page and the new applicant guidance so you can be sure your project fits before you spend time on an application. Official source: https://www.communityfoundation.org.uk/apply/.

Support for vulnerable people in Tyne & Wear and Northumberland

Community Foundation Tyne & Wear and Northumberland

Funding amount not listed

The Community Foundation Tyne & Wear and Northumberland funds a wide range of causes across the North East. This page is the starting point for applying. It helps you check your eligibility, see which funds are open and register to apply. If a fund with a current call suits your work, you can apply to that. If nothing matches, you can make a general application instead. As long as your organisation is in Tyne and Wear or Northumberland, you can do this at any time of year. Several funds could suit work with people facing hardship. The Mayor's Opportunity Fund backs practical cost-of-living help and offers up to £7,500 on a rolling basis to organisations. The Jackie Haq Fund supports small grassroots organisations tackling domestic violence, poverty, racism, disadvantage and mental health or suicide prevention. It offers up to £1,500 and closes on 23 November 2026. Other funds on the page cover young people, culture, sport, STEM and capital projects. Maximum awards run up to £25,000, depending on the fund.

Funding for Organisations – Charities and Community Groups

Kent Community Foundation

Funding amount not listed

Kent Community Foundation gives grants to support local people, charities and community groups in Kent and Medway. This listing covers its funding for organisations, which is aimed at charities and community groups. The Foundation funds work under five priority areas: mental health and wellbeing; children, young people and families; crisis and basic needs; connected communities; and the environment. Through these areas it funds hundreds of charities and community groups across the county. Its vision is a Kent and Medway where every community has the opportunity to thrive. Help is on hand if you are new to applying. The Foundation says hundreds of small charities and community groups secure funding with its support every year. You can read its application guidance, browse the FAQs and use a short eligibility checker to see whether your organisation qualifies. The Grants Team can guide you through the process by email at hello@kentcf.org.uk or by phone on 01303 814 500. The Foundation also has other routes. Professionals working with people in financial hardship can nominate individuals and families for a grant. There is also a social lending programme, with unsecured loans of £10,000 to £100,000 and up to 30% as a grant. These are separate from funding for organisations. One practical point: this page works as a starting point rather than a full set of guidelines. Use the eligibility checker and the guidance before you begin, so you can be sure your work fits one of the priority areas and your organisation qualifies.

Cumbria Community Foundation

Up to £5,000

The Abbeyfield Carlisle Society Over 55 Community First Fund is run by Cumbria Community Foundation. It gives grants to organisations that benefit people aged 55 and over in the communities of the former local authority areas of Allerdale, Carlisle and Eden. The money comes from the donor, Abbeyfield Carlisle Society Limited. The fund backs initiatives that reduce poverty, improve health, tackle social inequality and help people reach their potential. It also supports projects that nurture a sense of place or promote climate action. The page gives examples of what the fund supports.

It also covers equipment for a community centre that will also benefit older people, and improvements to community facilities that make them easier for older people to use.

Age Friendly Activities Fund

Cumbria Community Foundation

Up to £5,000

The Age Friendly Activities Fund from Cumbria Community Foundation gives small grants to help older people in the former South Lakeland district take part in community life. It backs small-scale projects that make a real difference. These include projects that reduce loneliness and social isolation, encourage physical activity and healthy ageing, bring generations together, and build digital confidence.

You can also use the money to remove practical, social or emotional barriers that stop older people joining in. Grants will normally be up to £5,000 over one year. The fund is open to charitable, not-for-profit organisations. Priority goes to small, grassroots and volunteer-led groups, community-led projects with strong local engagement, work that reaches older people in rural, deprived or underserved areas, and proposals with lasting impact or sustainability. One practical caveat: the fund does not pay for existing activities, unless the money is used specifically to remove barriers and help more people attend. It does not support individuals either, and the foundation's normal exclusions also apply. You apply through the foundation's online application portal. A step-by-step help guide is available on the funder's page, and the grants team can answer questions by phone or email.

Altrad Babcock Grassroots Fund

Cumbria Community Foundation

Up to £1,000

The Altrad Babcock Grassroots Fund is run by Cumbria Community Foundation with money from Altrad Babcock Limited. It gives grants to organisations in Allerdale, Barrow, Carlisle and Copeland, the areas where Altrad Babcock's employees live. The fund backs work that reduces poverty, improves health, tackles social inequality and helps people reach their potential. It also supports projects that nurture a sense of place or promote climate action for local people. If your project sits in one of the four areas and fits one of these themes, it could be a good match. Grants will normally be up to £1,000 over one year. That makes the fund a good fit for small, practical costs. Past examples include DIY equipment for a Men in Sheds group, astro-turf rebound boards for a community sports ground, and coaching costs for members of a junior cricket club. You can apply if you are a charitable, not-for-profit organisation. Individuals cannot apply. The foundation's normal exclusions apply as well, so your project needs to fit within those too.

Amentum Grassroots Fund

Cumbria Community Foundation

Up to £1,000

Charitable and not-for-profit organisations can apply. The fund backs initiatives that reduce poverty, improve health, tackle social inequality and help people reach their potential.

Another turned a gardening space into a "science zone" for young children. Grants will normally be up to £1,000 over one year. That makes this a good fit for focused, low-cost projects rather than large schemes. All applications are made through the foundation's online application portal. There is a step-by-step help guide to read before you start. One practical point: the fund does not support individuals, and the foundation's normal exclusions also apply. Read these before you apply. If you have questions about the fund, you can contact Annalee Holliday on 01900 825760 or email grants@cumbriafoundation.org.
