The deadline has now passed for grants of over £5000. There are no plans currently to run another over £5000 round of applications, though this may change in 2009 or 2010.

The BNDfC Burngreave Small Grant fund aims to encourage and enable the local community to work together towards the social and economic improvement of Burngreave. We want to provide individuals and groups with money to support local activities, develop new projects, assist existing groups and remove barriers to exclusion. We are keen to hear from local people, so please get in touch!

We can fund many different things, so please phone or email the Grants Team to find out if you are eligible.

Grants Available

There are three different types of grant:

  • Up to £250 – for individuals who live in the BNDfC area. This is primarily aimed at helping local people progress into further education or employment. Examples of what this grant could pay for are travelling expenses, course fees, childcare costs, study visits, or help with buying text books or equipment.

  • Up to £500 – for individuals who live in the BNDfC area or groups who operate in the BNDfC area. This grant could fund a wide variety of activity, for example group outings, volunteer expenses, art projects, sports, small environmental improvements, youth activities, or childcare or training costs.

  • Up to £5000 – for groups based in or operating in the BNDfC area, including informal groups of friends or neighbours to build their strength and do activities for the benefit of Burngreave.
