Awards for All have updated their funding criteria and are now offering even bigger grants!
What they fund – Social connections and community activities are at the heart of creating healthier, happier lives and a flourishing society. That’s why they support amazing community-led projects.

They offer funding from £300 to £20,000 and can support projects for up to two years.
You can apply for funding to deliver a new or existing activity or to support your organisation to change and adapt to new and future challenges. They will fund projects that:

• bring people together to build strong relationships in and across communities
• improve the places and spaces that matter to communities
• help more people to reach their potential, by supporting them at the earliest possible stage
• support people, communities and organisations facing more demands and challenges because of the cost-of-living crisis.

Suitable for Voluntary or community organisations

Funding size: £300 to £20,000, for up to two years

Application deadline – Ongoing. Apply at least 16 weeks before you want to start the activities or spend any of the money.
