What's Going On?

Unrestricted grants of between £500 and £2,000 can be accessed by voluntary or community organisations, including registered charities/companies, whose annual turnover is no more than £25,000.

Groundwork is working with Postcode Lottery for a third year to deliver Grassroots Grants.

This year, the programme will provide unrestricted funding of up to £2,000 to 700 small, local organisations in England that are making a positive difference in their communities.

Funding can be used for core organisational costs that support the important work organisations deliver in their communities. The funding offered is unrestricted and therefore flexible and can be used where it is most needed.

Funding for communities that rank as being within the top 15% on the English Indices of Deprivation.

Organisations that work with and support communities classed as marginalised or vulnerable

Applications may be submitted at any time between January and September

The programme will not fund sports or physical activities-based projects.
