✍🏽In early 2027 we'll be creating our Application Forum, a small working group to review and consider how we can make our application form better - in terms of ease of use and question relevance.

We want to ensure we involve local community groups and charities in this process - could your voice help make our application journey a positive one.

If you are well versed with our application form or have recently completed one we'd love to hear from you

❎️'you won't fund us, we're not a registered charity'

Half of groups who were awarded funds in the last 18 months weren't registered charities, we've also supported:

Community Interest Companies (CICs) and
Unincorporated voluntary groups / community groups

📞The main message is whatever your structure, complex or simple, please reach out and talk to us first so we can prepare you for success!
