Greater Manchester Victims Capacity and Capability Small Grant Fund 2026

Aims/Priorities: The next round of the Greater Manchester Victims Capability and Capacity Small Grant Fund has officially launched as of Wednesday, 13th May 2026.

This initiative is part of our ongoing 3-year small grants programme and is designed to prioritise supporting victims within Greater Manchester, specifically through VCSE victim support organisations. Our goal is to help victims cope and recover, regardless of whether the crime was reported.

Who can apply? The funding can be used to cover expenses directly related to the priority themes outlined for this round. By offering this financial support, we aim to enhance the capacity of victims’ services organisations, enabling them to deliver high-quality and effective care for those affected by crime. These organisations are vital in providing much-needed assistance and strengthening the support network across Greater Manchester.

Grant amount: Up to £5,000.

Application process: Completion of the application form.

Deadline: Applications for this grant will close on Wednesday, 10th June 2026, so please ensure your submissions are sent in before the deadline.

To help answer any queries and provide further guidance, we’ll be hosting an online engagement event on 21st May. This will be a great opportunity to learn more about the fund and ask any questions you may have. If you’d like to attend, please register by emailing lucy.phelan@greatermanchester-ca.gov.uk.
