The Comic Relief Community Fund, administrated by Groundwork, offers grants of up to £5,000 for grassroots, community-led organisations (income under £250,000) in England to help support the delivery of services and activity that benefit local communities.

The Fund will support:

• Organisations that are tackling the immediate and urgent impacts of being in poverty, including providing essential resources like food, shelter, advice and healthcare. For example, foodbanks, community kitchens, homeless shelters, welfare advice agencies and health outreach projects.
• Organisations working to empower communities to take positive steps to lift themselves out of poverty in the longer term. For example, projects that build skills, increase access to employment, strengthen financial resilience or develop community-led solutions.

Funding can be used for direct project costs or to support your core running expenses.
