Deadline: 04-Oct-21
Leeds Building Society Foundation is now accepting applications from UK registered charities with a turnover of less than £1m.
The Foundation primarily provides funding towards practical items that directly support those in need including those with disabilities, affected by homelessness, or with serious health issues.
Since 1999 the Foundation has donated more than £2,000,000 to 3,000 local projects and good causes across the UK, which support those who are disadvantaged or in vulnerable circumstances.
Eligibility Criteria
UK registered charities can apply for this funding.
- Donations usually fund items of “capital expenditure”. That means items must directly help those in need, rather than contributing to the charity’s running costs.
- The Foundation is unable to support:
- Religious, military or political projects
- Charities based overseas
- Individuals (including sponsorship)
- Animal welfare projects
- Medical research
- Administrative costs including salaries, rent or promotional materials
- General fundraising appeals
- Building restoration
- Items for staff use
Note: You don’t need to have an account or mortgage with Leeds Building Society to apply for funding.
