The B&Q Foundation Grants programme is provided by B&Q Foundation and managed by Neighbourly, a platform used by local Good Causes across the UK and Ireland.
A wide range of UK registered charities based and working in the UK can apply for one-off grants of up to £5,000 for garden projects or up to £10,000for building or indoor projects.
The funding is for registered charities working with people most in need because of homelessness, financial hardship, sickness, disability or other disadvantage.
Charities can use the grants to decorate, renovate or create spaces (indoors and outdoors) with the aim of making people feel at home and having a sense of belonging. Projects could include creating community gardens, redecorating properties, installing new boilers, and creating new buildings or rooms.
The funding will cover the full cost for the completion of the project, including staff time required.
Projects need to be delivered within six months of receiving the grant.
There are three more application windows in 2024.
Groundwork is delivering these community grants, designed to support unemployed and/or economically inactive people with complex barriers to move towards employment and digital inclusion.
These grants support projects that meet health and wellbeing related needs, and build strength within communities. We'll be offering grants up to £10,000 with possibility of two year funding.
The Women's Health Community Fund is designed to support small, grassroots organisations and community groups to deliver health information and support to women, girls and people from underrepresented groups.
