The Derbyshire Voluntary Action Small Grant Scheme is open for applications from small groups for funds to cover running costs.
Details...
Download the Small Grant application form and guidance notes
During these COVID19-affected times, there will be no closing date for applications. Derbyshire Voluntary Action will aim to get back to you with a decision within two weeks of receipt of your form. The maximum amount you can apply for is £1,000, but grants awarded are likely to be in the region of £500-£600. Derbyshire Voluntary Action will pause or close applications if necessary.
Be aware that groups can only receive funds from this scheme once in any 12 month period - therefore if you have previously received a Derbyshire Voluntary Action Small Grant you have to wait a year before applying again. Contact them if you are unsure when you last received a Small Grant.
If you are applying for the first time and new to Derbyshire Voluntary Action complete the membership and database forms at:

NSUN launches new fund with grants up to £1000 to support peer support, community action and mutual aid for mental health during Covid-19.
Details...
The Coronavirus Mental Health Response Fund (CMHRF) for Voluntary and Community Sector organisations based in England, to continue to provide mental health services, or provide additional support, during Covid-19. Thanks to £5m support from government (the Department of Health and Social Care), grants of £20,000 or £50,000 are available for projects lasting up to 12 months (for charities, CICs, CIOs or companies ltd. by guarantee).
As part of this funding programme, NSUN is administering a smaller fund to support user-led organisations and smaller, unconstituted community groups in England, who might not otherwise be eligible for a grant.
