In partnership with People’s Postcode Lottery, Groundwork offered 700 Grassroots Grants in its 2026 round of up to £2,000 to organisations across England, making a positive difference to their communities.
The funding provided is unrestricted and flexible, and can be used to cover core organisational costs, support your vital services, or meet your community’s needs through events, activities, and programmes.
Organisations whose income is up to £25,000 in the last financial year are eligible to apply.
Priority will be given to organisations which meet the following criteria:
- Funding for communities that rank as being within the top 15% on the English Indices of Deprivation.
- Organisations that work with and support communities classed as marginalised or vulnerable.
The 2026 round is closed to applications. Check the Groundwork website for any future round.
The grant programme is possible thanks to funding raised by players of People’s Postcode Lottery and is awarded through Postcode Local Trust, Postcode Places Trust, Postcode Neighbourhood Trust and Postcode Society Trust.
