Our Lasting Impact Large Grants Programme is now OPEN 💙

We want to support ambitious projects that will make a meaningful, lasting difference to the health and wellbeing of people across Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire and Moray.

We’re keen to work with NHS services, local charities, community and voluntary organisations, research and academic partners, and partnerships involving one or more of these organisations to turn great ideas into real improvements for people in our hospitals and communities.

There’s no minimum or maximum funding limit – we want you to tell us what you need to make a difference, rather than shape your ideas around a set budget.

Applications are now open, with Expressions of Interest being accepted until 12pm on Monday 9th November 2026.
