The Co-op Local Community Fund
Summary
The Co-op Local Community Fund gives money to local causes, helping to bring people together and make a difference. They give preference to projects run by small, local organisations that make a real difference to people in their community.
You can apply if your project:

- helps improve people’s mental wellbeing
- creates opportunities for young people to be heard and make a difference
- helps people protect local biodiversity or tackle climate change by reducing carbon emissions
If you are successful, you’ll be part of the Local Community Fund for 12 months from 22 October 2023 to 19 October 2024. You'll receive your funds in November 2024.
