Convenience store operator One Stop has announced that its Community Partnership programme has reopened for applications.
The programme provides grants of up to £1,000 to community groups and other not-for-profit organisations operating within a two-mile radius of a One Stop shop.
The grants are available to support projects and initiatives that are:
- Tackling food poverty
- Supporting the vulnerable
- Supporting the elderly
- Supporting low-income families
- Running youth sports teams
- Reducing / recycling waste
- Improving the environment
In addition to the grant, the One Stop Community Team and One Stop Store Team create a long-term, tailored support programme for successful applicants. Grant recipients then partner with the One Stop Store Team at their local shop to deliver this programme.
Applications will be welcomed from various organisations, including voluntary/community organisations, registered charities, schools, health bodies, Parish/Town councils, social enterprises, and Community Interest Companies.
The closing date for applications is 31st March 2026.
