There seems to be a drop in applications to the Foundation recently. Applications from individuals have increased but community groups are not putting in as many grant requests.
This may be due to the amount of grants we have given out over the last 18 months to projects with a turnover of less than £30k through the Government's Grassroots programme. However, there is still money available over the next 12 months from this programme up to a maximum of £5k and of course our other funds that we manage on behalf of donors.
Please visit our website and complete an Expression of Interest Form to see if you are eligible. Times are hard so any help we can give will be much needed.
