Grants Available in Yorkshire

Assessing applications

We are looking for projects which will deliver the best possible outcomes for people and communities in the most deprived areas, in line with the government’s Levelling Up agenda.

We are also looking for projects where our funding can help bring the best return on investment by helping to attract further funding from public and private organisations.

If you have a proposal that you think fits one or more of these priorities, please contact us at our Newcastle or York office. We would encourage you to talk to us about your proposal before you submit a grant application.

Our grants can be used to support a wide range of projects. They must deliver against our corporate objectives and national grant priorities.

All grant applications will be measured against how well they achieve public value using our Public Value Framework.

As we have a limited number of grants, high demand, and a focus on our national priorities, we would expect you to have explored alternative funding sources before applying to us.
