Charnwood Small Community Grants

Charnwood Borough Council

Description

Small grants of up to £750 for voluntary and community sector organisations with an annual income of less than £20,000, supporting community-based projects and activities in Charnwood. Runs in rounds throughout the year and stays open until funds are allocated.

Amount

Up to £750

Deadline

6 November 2026

Eligibility summary

  • Available in: England.
  • Open to individuals — not restricted to businesses.
  • Most relevant to: Charity & Nonprofit.
Notes
Confirmed via Charnwood Borough Council's own community grants page as open until Friday 6 November 2026 or until funds are allocated, whichever is sooner. Distinct from the council's larger Community Grants and Facilities Grants strands (up to £5,000, for larger organisations), which were closed to applications at research time — not modelled here to avoid presenting a closed round as live. Re-verified in August 2026 via the council's own 'Quick guide to Charnwood Community Grants' sub-page, which confirms the £750 cap and income-under-£20,000 threshold specifically for the Small Community Grants strand (the main commdevgrants page states the amount and deadline but not the cap by strand).
Requirement
Voluntary or community sector organisation based in or delivering activity in Charnwood, with annual income under £20,000; priority given to projects improving the lives, health, and wellbeing of vulnerable and disadvantaged people.

Want help with this application?

This one is usually simple enough to do yourself using the free official link below — but if you'd rather have help, we're building relationships with vetted professionals and can let you know if that becomes available.

Some of the organisations we may connect you with pay us a referral fee if you use their service. This never affects which listings you see in the directory. No live partner is confirmed yet for this listing.

You can also do this yourself for free via the official source
