FUNDING: Funding for Projects Making a Positive Impact on People’s Lives

Charities, social enterprises and community groups can apply for grants of up to £8,000 to deliver projects that make a positive difference to people’s lives. The funding is provided by the Focus Foundation — the charitable arm of Focus Group, a provider of essential business technology — to support projects that focus on underprivileged children and young adults, mental health, and community initiatives that are located close to one of its regional UK offices. To be eligible, projects should demonstrate clear and measurable benefits to their communities.

Applications are accepted year-round, with submissions closing four weeks before the next committee meeting scheduled for early March 2026.

Organisations interested in applying should do so here.
