Deadline: 7-Oct-22
The London Community Foundation is pleased to announce the Lambeth Community Fund that focuses on improving the wellbeing and quality of life of Lambeth residents.
Themes
-
All applications must address at least one of the three following themes:
- Stronger Together – bringing together people from diverse parts of the community to celebrate what it is to be a Lambeth resident. This theme encourages local organisations to share, learn and grow together to create a strong and vibrant voluntary and community sector.
- Feeling Fine – focusing on the physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing of residents of all ages and backgrounds, looking after the body, mind and soul. This theme is about health and happiness for all, including those who are particularly vulnerable or have specific needs.
- Learning for Life – helping residents to reach their full potential through the development of skills, knowledge, and experience. Whether this helps them to find a meaningful job in their chosen career or learn more about something they are passionate about, this theme is about keeping the mind active and challenged, whatever their age.
