Tameside

Applications are now being accepted for the Tameside Pride in Place Impact Fund.

Aims/Priorities: This is a £1.5 million investment to improve local pride and community spaces by March 2027. With some funding already committed a remaining £1.3 million is available for 26/27, with funding focusing on three types of improvements:

Aims/priorities: The funding aims to mitigate the impact of separation and relocation for families of serving personnel and reservists through a place-based (location focused) portfolio of projects.

Projects should focus on serving families (including reservists) affected by service-related separation (for example: deployment, exercises/training, unaccompanied postings, weekending and long-distance commuting, and repeated short-notice time away) or relocation. Addressing emerging needs will be a fundamental part of delivery.

Aims/priorities: The Trust's funding is intended to support its emphasis on the provision of homes, not just housing. It awards grants and interest-free loans to charitable organisations undertaking projects to provide housing for those in need.

The Trust offers the following support and informal advice to grassroots housing organisations across Britain:

Aims/priorities: The funding is intended to support organisations working with racially minoritised young men aged 18 to 25 who are in contact with the criminal justice system. The key aim of the fund is to increase these men's access to specialist services designed to meet their specific needs.

The Fund will provide multi-year grants to organisations with a focus on direct service delivery, providing specialist, culturally appropriate support, centring lived experience.

Aims/priorities: The funding is for UK-registered charities working, either at the national or regional level within the UK, in one or more of the Foundation's priority areas:

Aims/priorities: The funding is aimed at individuals and groups of young people who are able to demonstrate that, through volunteering or community service, they can enhance the lives of others, particularly those most marginalised by society.

Who can apply? Applications are accepted from UK-based volunteering or community service projects, organised and run by young people (under 30 years).

Grant amount: Up to £500 are available.

Aims/priorities: The Carbon Emissions Reduction Fund (CERF) supports initiatives principally aimed at reducing the climate change impact associated with energy use, which relate to Ofgem’s regulated areas of energy generation, distribution, supply and use.

The funding is for projects that demonstrate measurable and lasting reductions in the carbon intensity of energy use and accelerate the transition to net zero. Projects must also have a realistic prospect of delivering broadly replicable benefits to existing and future energy consumers.

Aims/priorities: The fund, provided by Ofgem Energy Redress Scheme and piloted under the scheme’s Carbon Emissions Reductions priority, aims to build the capacity of the community energy sector and deliver impactful renewable energy projects. It seeks to demonstrate how a just transition to net zero can benefit everyone.

The funding is intended to enable greater community ownership and social benefit from the historic growth in renewable energy over the next few years as the UK transitions to net zero.

Aims/priorities: This fund will support projects which deliver all of the following:

Aims/priorities: The priorities of the Main and Small Grants schemes are to:

• Support energy consumers in vulnerable situations.
• Deliver benefits to the types of consumers that were negatively impacted by the specific issues that triggered the redress payment.
