The National Deaf Children’s Society is offering grants of between £1,000 and £10,000 for community groups, charities, and other not-for-profit organisations across the UK to deliver projects and activities that support Early Years deaf children (aged 0 to 5) and their families.
The Community Grants Programme will support projects that both directly and indirectly support early years deaf children, such as play schemes, peer-to-peer support for parents, or schemes to train deaf young people as role models for younger children.
Each grant is for 12 months and is intended to cover the essential running costs of a project, such as venue hire, transport, promotional costs, wages for sessional workers, and equipment.
Applications can be submitted at any time.
Grants to support grassroots organisations providing safe social spaces, mentoring, work, or social skills for young people aged 11 to 25 years old. Priorities are safe spaces, diversionary activities and life skills.
Grants available for UK-based Charities/Charitable Incorporated Organisations (CIOs) working with vulnerable children and young adults, especially those at risk of sexual and other forms of exploitation.
Grants for UK-registered charities for projects supporting people experiencing or at risk of homelessness. Projects should provide life skills, including food education, healthy living and budgeting.
