The Hate Crime Awareness Summer-Autumn 2024 Grants Programme (2) is offering eight awards of £500 to help tackle hatred and discrimination. We can fund only projects delivered within the city of Manchester between late August and 30 November 2024.

Through Manchester City Council, Manchester Community Safety Partnership makes funding available annually to support projects across the city that promote awareness of hate crime and how to report it. Macc administers this grants programme on behalf of the Council.

The funding available is what remains from a previous differently-focused round of this grants programme that closed on 27 June.

Deadline: Thursday 25 July 2024, 12pm

Migrant Destitution Fund

Migrant Destitution Fund

The Migrant Destitution Fund supports migrant people who have 'no recourse to public funds' - a policy which leaves people unable to meet their basic needs, not supported by the state and not allowed to do paid work to support themselves. People supported by the Fund are mostly asylum seekers and people whose right to remain isn't recognised by the Home Office (e.g. because a relationship breaks down). Many eventually win the right to remain...but it is a long process. It traps people in destitution.

Local charities identify someone who needs support and make an application to the Fund. Grants are for up to £80 once a month and are typically spent on food, winter clothing, phone credit, travel costs (e.g. to appointments), dental treatment.

The Migrant Destitution Fund GM is closed for the summer. We will be reopening in the autumn, exact date to be confirmed. For further information, please contact [email protected]
