The Armed Forces Covenant Fund Trust - Reducing Veteran Homelessness Progamme
Created: 13/03/2025
News/Events Category: Funding and Finance
Under the Reducing Veteran Homelessness programme, the Armed Forces Covenant Fund Trust will award grants on behalf of the Office for Veterans’ Affairs (OVA), towards projects that contribute to the aims of the government’s ambition to reduce veteran homelessness and end rough sleeping.
This new round of the programme will provide funds to further improve the capacity of services in supported housing to meet the needs of vulnerable veterans.
You can apply for up to £300,000 per organisation towards a project being delivered over a period of up to nine months.
They would expect high-complex need projects to have a higher cost per head and low-to-medium complex need projects to have a lower cost per head. Where an organisation is bidding for multiple schemes (locations), you should cost each scheme separately, but combined as a single application.
You can also apply for an Enhanced Award of up to an additional £200,000, if you can show them that extending your project will fill a significant level of currently unmet need.
If you are already in receipt of an RVH grant then you will be expected to confirm the end date for your current funding in the application form and plan to start your new project after this date.
All projects must complete by 31 March 2026.
Eligibility
They invite applications from the following types of organisation:
- A registered charity which can demonstrate relevant experience and engagement in the direct provision of housing for veterans
- A registered social housing provider or registered social landlord in Scotland
- A local authority
How to apply
The closing date for applications is 11.59am on Monday 31 March 2025.
