“We’ve found that it’s not always easy for very small community groups to access grant funding, but applying for Grassroots Grants was relatively simple. Now we have funding to reach even more people in need” Leanne Moreland, Maternity Buddy, Lincolnshire

 

Grassroots Grants is a £130 million government funded programme that supports the voluntary sector in building stronger, more active communities. Grassroots Grants includes an £80 million small grants programme and an £50 million endowment match challenge. Both elements are delivered by local funders, which have excellent local knowledge and experience in giving out grants and managing endowment funds.
