Reaching Communities England funding from The National Lottery which you / a group you’re involved with may be eligible for.

Their priorities are to fund projects that:

  • support places, people or communities experiencing poverty, disadvantage or discrimination
    and
  • support people and communities to shape the decisions that affect their lives.

 And your project must achieve one of their missions. Which are to support communities to:

  • Come together, through inclusive places, spaces and activities (either physical or virtual). Especially for communities where people are least able to come together.
  • Help children and young people thrive, by developing positive social and emotional skills.
  • Be healthier, by addressing health inequalities. And helping prevent poor health.
  • Be environmentally sustainable. By engaging with climate issues and having a positive environmental impact. And improving access to quality natural spaces.

Funding starts at £20,001. But most applications they fund are for less than £500,000.
