Global’s Make Some Noise

Global’s Make Some Noise funds life changing projects delivered by small charities, making a real difference in communities across the UK. They're here to make sure nobody has to face life’s toughest challenges alone.
As the official charity of Global, the Media and Entertainment Group, they tap into the power of Global’s radio brands including Capital, Heart, Classic FM, Smooth, LBC, Radio X, Capital XTRA and Gold, as well Global’s extensive outdoor advertising portfolio. They use this to raise money and shine a light on some of the biggest issues affecting charities.
The current programme prioritises grant-giving for small charities that are working to address one of their key outcome areas for achieving change in communities across the UK:
- Providing shelter and safety
- Supporting physical and/or mental health
- Developing life skills
- Reducing isolation or improving inclusion
They are most likely to fund:
- Staff salaries predominantly associated with direct delivery work
- Any programme, sessional, service or project delivery costs
- Equipment, technology, materials or refurbishment costs which are related to direct service delivery work
- A contribution to running costs/overheads (in contribution to a wider direct-delivery programme)
