The grants programme will support small organisations addressing complex social issues. Charities and Charitable Incorporated Organisations (CIOs) with a turnover of £25,000 to £500,000 can 
apply for an unrestricted grant of up to £75,000 over three years, provided they are carrying out work which fits in with one of the fund’s priorities:
- Addiction and dependency on alcohol, drugs and/or gambling
- Asylum seekers and refugees
- Domestic and sexual abuse
- Homeless and vulnerably housed
- Offending, prison or community service
- Sexual exploitation
- Trafficking and modern slavery
- Care leavers
The funding is for organisations supporting people (17 years and older) who are experiencing complex social issues resulting in a significant impact on their lives. As 'specialist organisations', applicants need to demonstrate the following:
- In-depth services, rather than short-term or one-off support
- Holistic and person-centred services
- Personal plans in the form of written or electronic records of every person being supported, noting progress against activities
Grants can be used to support any costs which further the charity's purpose, including building reserves and meeting core costs.
There will be an information webinar on 12 January 2023 to discuss the fund. Register on Eventbrite
