Description
This fund supports a broad range of community and voluntary groups with a variety of different costs. As with all of the Foundation’s funds, the overarching purpose of each grant we make is to enhance the quality of life for people living in Nottinghamshire and Nottingham communities and to tackle disadvantages and inequalities faced by people living in the county and city today.
As described above, the fund’s aim is to support community life and tackle disadvantage. Please read the rest of the criteria carefully to see if your group will be able to apply to this funding stream.
