Grassroot grants

Third sector organisations are invited to apply to become local funders for Grassroots Grants, the new multi-million pound funding programme funded by Office of the Third Sector and delivered by the Community Development Foundation. The fund will provide much-needed access to small grants and long-term funding for local community groups and organisations in England who will apply for funds from a local funding provider later this year.

The deadline for applications to become a local funder is 30 April. Briefing events for those organisations interested in becoming a local funder for Grassroots Grants will be held in each of the nine Government Office regions during March.
