From January 2020, the Foundation’s Impact Grants programme will be moving to one funding round per year.  This will not impact on the level of funding available through the programme.

We have taken this decision so that we are able to better develop our focus on working collaboratively with organisations in order to explore and address priority issues and opportunities arising in the county. More information on this approach can be found on the Impact Grants programme page

The next funding round for Impact grants invites Expressions of Interest by the 15^th January 2020.  Please note Expressions of Interest are by invitation only and you must contact the Foundation and speak with a Grants Manager if you are interested in applying to the programme. Following this funding round we will move to one funding round per year.

We appreciate the impact that this may have on those interested in applying to  the programme and encourage you to contact us if you wish to discuss further.

Please note that this change only affects our Impact Grants programme.  The timeline for our Local and Community grants programme remains the same and can be found on our Information for Applicants page.
