The trade retailers Screwfix established the Screwfix Foundation in 2013 to support local projects that improve, repair and maintain homes and community facilities used by those in need in the UK.
Local registered charities and not-for-profit organisations can apply for grants of up to £5,000 for projects which improve a physical building (or land attached to it) that is used by people in need.
The funding is to be used for the following types of projects:
Registered charities, Community Benefit Societies, Cooperative Societies and Community Interest Companies can apply as long as they have suitable governance to manage the fund and are supporting people in need whether by reason of financial hardship, sickness, disability or other disadvantage or distress.
Due to the very high number of applications received each quarter, Screwfix will give priority to where Screwfix is funding the project in full and where the project will directly benefit people in need and will have a long lasting impact.
Grants for capital projects are available to small and medium-sized charities registered in the UK working to assist homeless people to rebuild their lives and return to the community.
Grants of up to £2,000 for constituted charities, CICs, and voluntary and community groups with an annual income of less than £25,000, who are are providing vital services in their local communities.
Core and project funding for charities operating in the following areas: the arts, education, support for carers and older people, early intervention projects for disadvantaged children and young people, and more.
