Mencap has launched the I’m In Challenge grants, offering up to £500 to support projects in England that help people with a learning disability join the GP’s learning disability register.
Funding
If you would like support with securing your organisations funding, contact KCSC’s organisational development team on [email protected]. You can find a list of funds that are currently open for voluntary and community organisations below.
Grants of up to £5,000 are available to constituted organisations and groups (groups that have a constitution/governing document) and a bank account in the organisation/group's name. The funding is for projects running between April and July 2026 which are designed to benefit people who are eligible for Grenfell Community Support.
Background:
Grants of up to £2,000 are available in three funding rounds this year for organisations working to support individuals and families living in emergency or temporary accommodation in London.
Funding is for projects that aim to enrich people's lives, improve their health and well-being, or offer opportunities to realise their potential.
Funding can cover:
The Our Space Award (OSA) aims to help Londoners clean and green the city through active community engagement and participation, increasing a sense of community ownership over shared spaces. It supports Londoners of all ages and backgrounds, communities and schools in greening their neighbourhoods, making them inclusive places for all to enjoy.
Grants of up to £10,000 and £100,000 are available to non-profit collaborations in London, to make physical activity and sport available to all young people and children across London.
Core and project grants of up to £40,000 per year for three years are available to non-profit organisations who support disadvantaged children and young people under the age of 18 in the UK.
All projects and organisations must address the programme’s four key strategic outcomes for children and young people:
Help build your organisation
Building your organisation takes time, commitment and energy. We can help with all aspects of seing up and running a voluntary or community organisation as well as advice on business planning, governance, fundraising, policies, evaluation and demonstrating impact to help your organisation to develop.
Identify the support you need
We can help you identify the support your organisation needs, so that you have the appropriate skills, knowledge and resources in place. KCSC provides tailor-made organisational development support for voluntary and community organisations operating in the borough of Kensington and Chelsea.
