UK: The Fore Summer 2022 Funding Round
Deadline: 9-May-22
Applications are now open for the “The Fore Summer 2022 Funding” to help fantastic small charities and social enterprises plan for the longer term and take the next step in their development.
The Fore is particularly looking to fund small organisations working with marginalised groups and led by people in the community that may have found it hard to access trust and foundation funding in the past.
They make unrestricted grants which have the potential to have a transformational impact on an organisation. Transformational impact includes helping organisations become more sustainable, more efficient, to grow significantly or enabling an organisation to take a major step forward of some kind. They see their grants as investments in the organisations they support. To read more about this, see their blog post on ‘Understanding Transformational Impact’.
Funding Information & Duration
This fund is offering grants of up to £30,000 in total, over up to 3 years.
Eligibility Criteria
They accept applications from registered charities, community interest companies, charitable incorporated organisations and community benefit societies.
They cannot accept applications from companies limited by guarantee, even if they have other elements associated with social enterprises.
They are unable to fund organisations whose registration as a charity, community interest company, charitable incorporated organisation or community benefit society in the UK is in process but has not yet been approved.
They fund charitable activities in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland as well as England.
