Available Funding

Co-op Local Community Fund

The Local Community Fund supports projects in Co-op members’ communities that provide access to opportunities and resources to help people thrive.

In the next funding round, Co-op Members will decide how they invest a further £5m through the Local Community Fund.

You can apply if your project helps people to thrive in one of the following ways:

• enables people to access food
• creates opportunities for young people
• improves people’s mental wellbeing
• promotes community cohesion
• builds sustainable futures

Co-op are also keen to support projects that promote and celebrate diversity and inclusion.

£6,000 is available in every community and the funding will be shared between three local causes. The amount your project receives will be based on the number of Co-op members that choose your cause.

Every cause will receive a minimum of £1,000.
