Get Living is delighted to launch its first Inspiring Lewisham Community Fund, which aims to support local projects and causes in Lewisham, London. This fund will provide funding for grassroots projects, community groups and social enterprises based in the nearby area that can make a huge difference to the local community. The fund is now open to applications. We are especially looking for partners who can help us deliver against four key areas: Supporting skills, enterprise and employment; connecting people to nature and sustainable behaviours; enhancing health and wellbeing; and celebrating arts and culture. Successful projects will be invited to the Get Living Lewisham launch event on the 16th October. ------ Applying for funding on ActionFunder is a bit different. Here’s the process: sign up, register your organisation and post a project you want funding for. Your project will automatically match with any funds you meet the criteria for (grant amount, location, focus area). If you want to apply for this fund, make sure your project meets the criteria. - Grant amount: £5,000 - £10,000 - Location: Lewisham, within 2 miles of SE13 7TQ Your project will remain live on the platform (ready to match with new funds) until you successfully win funding. ActionFunder’s all about saving you time so that you can get on with what matters: community action. *This fund closes on the 18th September
