Fund purpose

We are thrilled to launch our new Thriving Communities Fund - Strengthening Place. The Fund is aimed at supporting not-for-profit groups and organisations to provide place-based grants that empower local groups to take action and deliver cohesive, sustainable and resilient communities which people are proud to be part of. Grants from £1,000 to £7,500 are available for groups that operate within defined SNG communities where we have homes and whose work will directly benefit SNG customers. We are particularly interested in projects that demonstrate a clear understanding of what is already available in the local community, how it will complement existing provision, address gaps and work in partnership with others, to deliver a long-lasting impact on the local community. We also encourage projects that are supporting diverse, marginalised or vulnerable groups – we particularly welcome projects with a focus on youth and ageing well within the priorities below The fund will focus on the following priorities - Community Safety - - Innovative approaches to tackling anti-social behaviour - Crime reduction - Safer neighbourhoods Environment and sustainability - - Fostering lasting place-based improvements in local communities - Supporting local nature recovery - Galvanising community action on climate change and nature and enhancing biodiversity Health, wellbeing and social inclusion - - Creating communities where people can feel well and live well - Investing in the development of more inclusive and age friendly communities. - Encouraging and supporting young people to achieve their aspirations and transition from where they are to where they want to be - Providing mental health support or promoting mental and emotional health, including holistic activities like creative arts to build confidence and reduce stigma around mental health challenges - Improving the health of communities, promoting healthy habits and pro-active prevention through exercise, grassroots sports and other activities. - Bringing communities together for improved community cohesion and improving connections across generations Further information about projects we will fund, eligibility and our communities can be found on our website – https://www.sng.org.uk/thriving-communities/strengthening-place-fund
