Cheapside Business Alliance is launching our 4th Community Fund to support local charities and projects in the Cheapside area. This year, the fund will focus on projects that promote collaborative climate action and long-term sustainability, as well as protect and enhance the local environment. We are also looking for projects that create opportunities for young people to support their employment and engagement with the City. These themes feature strongly in our Business Plan for 2025-2030 (https://incheapside.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/CBA-Business-Plan.pdf) and aim to contribute to the City's wider climate goals, as well as build a healthier community for the businesses of Cheapside. ----- 💫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. 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.
