The GSK Community Health programme is open to registered charities that are at least a year old, located and working in the UK with a total annual income between £20,000 and £150,000. Up to 10 charities will receive up to £10,000, plus access to training and development valued at £5,000.
Health inequalities are avoidable and systematic differences that include access to health care, quality and experience of care, life expectancy, and wider factors such as environment and housing. There are stark gaps in health between the least and most deprived areas in the UK, with the cost-of-living squeeze and rising poverty also impacting many people’s health.
A considerable amount of work tackling health inequalities is carried out by very small charities working with their communities. These organisations can find it hard to access unrestricted funding and support for their leaders, particularly in the current economic climate.
Organisations led by and supporting the most disadvantaged communities – such as those supporting ethnic minority communities, people with disabilities, people from the LGBTQ+ community, and others – are particularly encouraged to apply for this programme.
The GSK Community Health programme will support aspirational leaders to develop their organisations to tackle health inequalities. It is designed to run alongside the GSK IMPACT Awards and support the next generation of award winners.
Up to 10 organisations will receive up to £10,000 in unrestricted funding.
To be eligible, organisations must be:
Fund to support interventions and evidence on how secondary schools can best be supported to deliver healthy relationships content, and ultimately reduce violence against women and girls.
Grants are available for small to medium-sized charities registered and working in the UK that defend human rights and promote respect for vulnerable individuals.
Grants for VCSE organisations that support opportunities for young people (0-29) to build creative knowledge and skills; or develop and deliver cultural or creative initiatives in their local areas.
