Community Spirit Small Grants Fund — now open for applications

Kensington and Chelsea Foundation have now opened their Community Spirit Small Grants Fund again for grants of up to £1,000.

This is a small grants fund to support events and activities that bring joy, hope and healing to our community. The majority of the beneficiaries of your project must be residents of Kensington and Chelsea.

It is for one-off and short-term events (not spanning more than 6 weeks and not part of an organisation’s core, day-to-day work) such as cultural and celebration events, school holiday activities, workshops and sports tournaments. Our grant must make up at least 25% of the total project cost.

There is no deadline and we will review applications on a rolling basis, however you must apply at least 6 weeks before your project is due to start. Due to limited funds, organisations may only apply once in Year 6 of the Fund (Sept 26–Sept 27). Please bear in mind that when the funds allocated run out, we will close the fund.

We are particularly interested in applications for projects in the south of the borough and from grassroots organisations working with minoritised or excluded communities.

Here is the link to the application form: Community Spirit Small Grants Fund Application (Year 6) – Fill in form. Please read the criteria before applying.
