Our previous Community Cares Fund recipients

Our communities are home to inspiring charitable organisations that carry out vital work, making a real difference to local people's lives every day.


Through our Community Cares Fund, we support projects that strengthen community cohesion and integration. The Fund helps people take an active role in their communities, reduces barriers and inequalities, and encourages positive social connections and shared experiences.


Since launching in April 2020, the Fund has awarded 250 grants, supporting more than 146,450 people across our local communities. On this page, you can find out more about each of the organisations our fund has supported in the recent funding windows.
