Community grants and fundraising

Making a difference to local communities

Have you got a great idea that you want to bring to life, but need some funding to get the ball rolling? We’ve got community grants of up to £2,500 available if you’re looking for support for projects in your town. Customers, local charities and community groups wanting to make positive things happen in their community can apply for a grant.

We’re also in the know when it comes to other sources of funding that are available to community groups. And we can even help you apply for support.

Community grants

If you’ve spotted an opportunity to improve your local Yorkshire Housing community then we can help with our community grants.

Anyone can apply, your idea just needs to benefit the community and Yorkshire Housing customers. In the past we’ve had people use the grant to develop community gardens, cafes or sports programmes for young people, just to name a few.  

So, if you’ve got an idea on how to improve social opportunities, skills or health and wellness in your community, we’d love to hear from you! You’ll find some guidance on what we can and can’t support and some info on how it all works in our community grant guidance document

You can drop us an email with all the details and we’ll see if we can help you make it happen. Just don’t forget to include how it could benefit Yorkshire Housing customers too.
