Grant Deadline: 23 August 2024
The Community Grants program will reopen for applications on July 26th, 2024. Grants are available in two categories: Core Cost Funding and Project Funding.
Core Cost Funding:
This type of funding provides financial support to help grassroots charitable organisations cover their overall operational expenses. It is aimed specifically at those that focus on serving people aged 65 and over. Eligible applicants include registered charities and community groups, but not Community Interest Companies. Organisations that align well with the foundation’s objectives can apply for funding of up to £7,500.
Project Funding:
This type of funding is designed to support new or existing projects that serve people over 65. It is available to a broader range of organisations, including registered charities, community groups, and Community Interest Companies limited by guarantee.
A copy of their guidance for this round will be posted on their website shortly.
