Arnold Clark, the UK’s largest independently owned, family-run car retailer, has been offering grants to communities in the areas in which it operates since 2021.
Registered charities and community groups across England, Scotland and Wales can apply now for a grant of up to £2,500 to support cost of living projects that are located within 50 miles of an Arnold Clark branch.
Applications will be accepted from UK-registered charities, local community groups, social enterprises, community interest companies, groups of organisations that are community or voluntary-led, and charitable incorporated organisations.
Their work must directly support those most affected by the cost-of-living crisis, such as foodbanks, accommodation, poverty relief and where people/communities in the UK are the primary and immediate focus of investment.
Applications are encouraged from smaller voluntary and community organisations who are working with those most affected and vulnerable to the increased cost of living.
There are no deadlines for applications. However, it is recommended that groups apply as early as they can as applications could be paused due to high demand.
Applications are currently being accepted.
