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.
More than a decade later, the Foundation continues to offer grants with money raised through staff fundraising and customer donations.
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.
Applications are considered quarterly.
The next deadline is 10 May 2026.
Grants of £100 are available for organisers of a 'Great Get Together' event, an annual celebration of everything that connects our communities.
Grants are available to constituted UK based organisations to run projects for children and young people (25 or under) to make music activity more inclusive and foster learning, creation and employment opportunities.
Grants for organisations working with young people to deliver projects and work that supports young people aged 18 years and under across the priority themes of abuse, addiction, child carers, and homelessness.
