Apply to the Grassroots Grants Fund now! 💚🚨

Friends of Grange Park, a Blackpool-based, community-led organisation, was previously awarded £1,269 to support their vital work to reduce the impact of poverty.

An organisation dedicated to improving the lives of residents in Grange Park and surrounding areas, Friends of Grange Park works to reduce the impact of poverty, promote physical and mental well-being, and build a stronger, more connected community.

Grassroots Grants funding supported their ‘Staying Alive in 25’ project, which prioritised food support, mental health support, and cost-of-living advice for residents, aiming to equip them with tools and support to live healthier, happier lives.

In partnership with Postcode Lottery, we’re offering this flexible funding to organisations across England that are making a positive difference in their communities and are delivering change.

Applications are open to eligible voluntary or community organisations, registered charities, and CICs with an annual turnover under £25,000.

Applications close 30 September 2026 and are reviewed on a rolling basis.
