The Fund’s aim is to support communities, enabling them to create the conditions for good mental health and wellbeing at a population level whilst ensuring access to a range of support to match their needs.
- Tackle mental health inequalities through supporting a range of ‘at risk’ groups*.
- Address priority issues of social isolation and loneliness, suicide prevention and poverty and inequality with a particular emphasis on responding to the cost-of-living crisis and support to those facing socio-economic disadvantage.
- Support small ‘grass roots’ community groups and organisations to deliver such activities.
Please note that to be eligible for this fund your group or organisation must have an income of under £1 Million. (More information in the Eligibility section) - Provide opportunities for people to connect with each other, build trusted relationships and revitalise communities.
