Local community groups, charities, CICs, sports clubs and voluntary organisations delivering projects that benefit communities within BCP and Dorset can apply for grants of up to £2,500. The fund is particularly suited to grassroots community projects, sports and recreation activities, wellbeing initiatives and projects supporting vulnerable people.

Funding is available for projects that help develop young people, support vulnerable groups, or promote sport, physical activity and healthy lifestyles. Recent awards have funded sports equipment, accessibility improvements, wellbeing programmes, theatre activities, community projects and opportunities for young people.

Applications are considered by quarterly panels, which are typically scheduled in March, June, September and December. The fund is currently accepting applications for the December round.
