The National Lottery Fairer Life Chances
Created: 28/11/2024
News/Events Category: Funding and Finance
This item will show under the following categories: Children and Families
This funding is for projects that support children, young people and families. Or that help people to be healthier and have better access to support.
Projects should support people experiencing poverty, disadvantage or discrimination.
Your project should be designed with the people you support. You should:
- Involve them in how it’s developed, delivered and led
- Make use of their existing skills and interests
- Complement and make connections with other services that support them.
Projects must meet one of these outcomes:
- Children, young people and families thrive
- People have better relationships, connections, and physical or mental health
See what they’re hoping to fund for details and priorities.
You can achieve both outcomes. But you will not improve your chances of getting funding by achieving both outcomes.
Funding available
They offer funding from £20,001 to £500,000 for up to five years.
They will talk to you about the length and amount of funding you can apply for when you contact them.
They want to fund different sizes of organisations and projects but they expect that most of the funding will be for £250,000 or less.
