Grassroots community organisations within a three-mile radius of Sheffield Olympic Legacy Park are invited to apply for grants of up to £1,000 to fund their activities addressing physical and mental health and wellbeing.
We know that a wide variety of local charities, social enterprises and community groups are doing incredible work to support people by providing physical and mental health and well-being activities.
Thanks to the generosity of Sheffield Olympic Legacy Park partners, we are able to make small grants to community organisations to support this work.
We are particularly keen to see applications from organisations led by and/or providing support to minoritized and marginalised communities in this area of Sheffield.
How much can I apply for?
Up to £1,000, to be spent within one year. Consortiums bringing together more than one community organisation in a single bid can apply for larger grants of up to £5,000. Your application should identify one organisation as the lead applicant who will hold the grant and be accountable for it and should explain how and why the organisations are working together.
