National Lottery: Awards for All

With the COVID-19 pandemic still with us, we'll continue to support people and communities most adversely impacted by COVID-19.

We can support you to:

• continue to deliver activity - whether your community needs crisis response, recovery or business as usual activity
• change and adapt, becoming more resilient to respond to new and future challenges.

In order to support communities to thrive, we aim to:

• build strong relationships in and across communities
• improve the places and spaces that matter to communities
• help more people to reach their potential, by supporting them at the earliest possible stage.

Your project should involve your community

We firmly believe that when people are in the lead, communities thrive – we want your project’s application to demonstrate this clearly.

People understand what’s needed in their communities better than anyone, especially during these unprecedented times. We want to support projects that: 

• involve people and communities from the start 
• build on people’s strengths    
• are connected in their community.

But make sure you’re following the current Government guidance on COVID-19. Given the ongoing pandemic, we expect continued high demand for our funding and we will have to make some tough choices. Please bear with us as our funding teams respond to the demand.
