Arnold Clark, the UK’s largest independently owned, family-run car retailer, has been offering grants to communities in the areas in which it operates since2021.
Registered charities and community groups across England, Scotland and Wales can apply now for a grant to support cost of living projects. To be eligible, they must be based/operate solely in the UK and located within 50 miles of an Arnold Clark branch.
Their work must directly support those most affected by the cost-of-living crisis, such as foodbanks, accommodation, poverty relief and where people/communities in the UK are the primary and immediate focus of investment.
Applications are encouraged from smaller voluntary and community organisations who are working with those most affected and vulnerable to the increased cost of living.
Funding is at the discretion of Arnold Clark Community Fund with a possible maximum grant of £2,500. Arnold Clark will contact successful applicants on a weekly basis.
There are no deadlines for applications. However, it is recommended that groups apply as early as they can as applications could be paused due to high demand.
Small grants are available for local projects, activities and organisations that have charitable aims and that will be of real direct benefit to families.
Prosper are offering unrestricted small grants to charities and not-for-profit organisations. Grants can be used flexibly and can cover core or project costs.
Leeds Building Society are offering grants to registered charities, focusing on projects that address financial stress; security and refuge; and/or quality and suitability of housing.
