The aim of this grant programme is to fund community projects within Portsmouth that work to tackle poverty and increase health and wellbeing. The priority of these funds is for projects supporting Portsmouth City residents. There is a small amount available for applications which demonstrate disadvantage and need in the greater Portsmouth area.

The Community Fund offers 12 month grants of £1,000 – £5,000 for nonprofit community organisations. The fund will only make grants to organisations based in AND supporting work within Portsmouth and immediately surrounding areas. When applying for this fund, community organisations should consider how the project will help to ease poverty and/or increase wellbeing for participants. Your project can reach Portsmouth residents of all ages and fund work that is one to one (such as counselling) as well as work on a group basis.

The Portsmouth City Community Funds were established by Portsmouth City Council from a number of charitable trusts and is managed by HIWCF.
