Henry Smith Charity - Strengthening Communities
Details
The Strengthening Communities grant programme is designed to support small charitable organisations working at grassroots level in the most disadvantaged areas of the UK (10% most deprived), targeting places that are economically marginalised and affected by poverty.
They will fund work that enables:
- people from across the community to participate in activities which improve connectedness, opportunities and wellbeing
- people who are excluded, vulnerable or facing other forms of hardship to have access to community-based services that support positive lasting change
- a stronger, active, more engaged community.
Premium information is available exclusively to SCVO members and supporters
