The Charles Hayward Foundation wish to fund preventative and early intervention programmes being delivered at the community level which allow older people to stay in their own homes and remain independent. The Foundation are interested in programmes which can demonstrate their effectiveness in improving the quality of life of older people. We favour projects that offer a consistent and sustained benefit rather than one-off events or short-lived activities.
The Foundation fund projects in the following sub-categories:
Grants for not-for-profit organisations with charitable projects that support the community in line with the priority areas of energy resilience, vulnerability, fuel poverty, levelling the rural divide and more.
School for Social Entrepreneurs are offering a Match Trading Grant that, combined with the learning programme, will support you to develop trading income streams and build a resilient community business.
Wakefield Council are inviting VCSE organisations for apply for funding to deliver volunteering and social action projects. Focused on improving health and wellbeing, reducing crime, and bringing communities together.
