Help the Homeless grants
Help The Homeless makes grants to charitable organisations with the aim of helping homeless people return to the community and enabling them to resume a normal life. Grants are available to small and medium-sized charitable organisations to fund the capital costs of projects with grants of up to £5,000. The quarterly deadlines for grant applications each year are: 15 March, 15 June, 15 September and 15 December.
FUNDING: benefitting local communities
Grants of up to £1,000 are available from the One Stop Carriers for Causes grants programme for projects that benefit local communities within two miles of a One Stop store in Great Britain. The programme is funded through the money raised from the 5p bag charge in One Stop stores in England, Wales and Scotland. Projects must meet at least one of the following outcomes: improving the lives of young people; improving the lives of the elderly; promoting physical activity; improving health or wellbeing; increasing community safety; and protecting or improving the local environment. This is a rolling programme, and applications will be accepted throughout the year. Find out more and apply here
