Community Cares Fund
Our community is full of thiriving charitable organisations doing vital work that benefits thousands of local people.
Our Community Cares Fund gives grants to initiatives that address the theme of 'community cohesion and integration'. It aims to support people in playing an active part in our communities, to reduce barriers and inequalities, and improve social contact and experiences.
Since the launch of the Fund in April 2020 we've awarded 250 grants, supporting more than 146,450 people in our local communities.

As a co-operative we still follow in the tradition of our founders and believe in the values of honesty, openness, social responsibility and caring for others. It's part of who we are and why we do what we do.
