Winchester City Community Grants
OPEN
If you require assistance, please contact us at grants@winchester.gov.uk or call us on 01962 848 269.
This funding scheme is designed to provide small, one-off grants to local groups and organisations working in the city of Winchester, empowering them to make improvements to their local community or neighbourhood.
Grants are available for projects that help to bring communities together and provide activities that enrich local life for people living in the city, as defined by the Winchester town wards. See our ward map for eligible areas.
Further details of the type of activities we are looking to fund are given below. Organisations may apply for a one-off grant between £500 and £3,000, one grant per financial year.
The application process aims to be as straightforward as possible to encourage small and new groups to apply. Should your application be eligible for funding we would like you to attend an informal panel meeting via MS Teams to discuss your application. You will be advised on the outcome within a couple of weeks of your meeting.
We aim to support organisations throughout the year so the fund is open on a rolling basis with panels held to review applications every 2-3 months. The closing date will be 28 February 2025 or sooner if the budget is fully allocated before this date. Please note this is a competitive fund and is likely to be over-subscribed.
