Small not-for-profit organisations and community groups with charitable aims can apply for grants of between £500 and £5,000 to deliver activities, projects and services that strengthen communities experiencing inequalities and disadvantage, or improve the lives of local people who face difficulties and have limited access to appropriate or affordable services and support. This can be geographic communities and/or communities of people brought together by race or ethnicity, age, disability, gender, or sexual orientation.
The Quartet Community Foundation’s Express Grants Programme supports activities in Bristol, Bath & North-East Somerset, North Somerset or South Gloucestershire.
The grants can be towards any reasonable costs including:
- Core or running costs
- Project and activity costs
- Capital costs if you already have most of the funds
- needed where the building or equipment is more than the grant.
Applications can be made at any time and decisions are usually made within 8 weeks of receiving the application.
