Grant details

Our UK strategy We launched our current UK strategy in September 2020. It is built around key funding priorities, where we wish to see change: Investing in young people Migration and integration Arts access and participation Education and learning through the arts Nurturing ideas and people Our commitment to social justice underpins all these priorities. We are particularly interested in supporting individuals and organisations that share this commitment, and in funding work that: Strengthens civil society Supports social innovation Champions people’s voice and agency Responds to digital transformation Responds to the climate emergency Each fund has a specific range, of which you can check on their website, but as an indicative summary: Ideas and Pioneers typically offers grants up to £10,000 Youth Funds typically makes grants of £60,000 over two years ‘Explore and Test’ grants are usually in the range of £20,000 to £60,000, for a period of up to two years ‘More and Better’ grants are usually in the range of £100,000 to £400,000 over four years For some funds (Backbone Fund, Growth Fund, Our Neighbourhood Fund), they gather information and insights from their Grants Managers, trustees and paid advisors – as well as their existing relationships – to identify organisations that support their charitable objectives and would benefit from funding. These organisations will then be approached and invited to apply for specific opportunities.

Application procedure

Each fund has a different online application process. Some accept applications on a rolling basis, while others have fixed deadlines (the current exceptions are the Teacher Development Fund and Teach for Good). The relevant guidelines and application forms can be found in each section of their website. Online applications can be saved whilst you are working on them. Once you have submitted your application, you will receive an e-mail confirmation with your reference number. On average, it takes around four months from the date of your application before you receive a grant decision. They do not, therefore, accept applications for work that is due to start within four months from the date that an application is submitted. Their ‘More and Better’ grants have a longer two-stage application process, so you must apply at least six months before you plan to start the work you would like us to fund.
