Localgiving is working with People’s Postcode Lottery, a grant giving charity funded by players of People’s Postcode Lottery, to offer charitable organisations the opportunity to apply for 2000 grants of £500.
What they fund
The Magic Little Grants Fund provides charitable organisations the opportunity to access funding to deliver a range of projects which fit one or more of the below funding themes:
- Improving mental wellbeing
- Enabling community participation in the arts
- Preventing or reducing the impact of poverty
- Supporting marginalised groups and promoting equality
- Improving biodiversity and green spaces
- Enabling participation in physical activity
- Responding to the climate emergency and promoting sustainability

Grants can be used to support the general running costs of new or existing projects. For example, this could include anything from; supporting homeless individuals to find safe accommodation to organising virtual art sessions in your community, or from purchasing sports equipment to running diversity classes.
Grants can also be used to cover core business costs.
Successful organisations will receive an annual membership with Localgiving funded by People’s Postcode Lottery. This membership will give them access to the Localgiving online fundraising platform, regular fundraising competitions and expert fundraising advice.

Applications are open until 31 October 2021 and you will receive funding within six weeks. Apply for a grant via the Localgiving website.
