Regeneration – local initiatives which improve the economic prospects of an area or a community of interest.
We want to help people and communities to become economically more stable. That may mean the creation of more social businesses or money to help development trusts. It may mean looking at alternative ways of providing local jobs, facilities and services. We will consider training programmes and schemes that help people in an area acquire skills or confidence to re-enter the workplace. We are interested in supporting projects both in urban and rural areas that clearly help towards the economic development of the place. This may include capital grants for buildings or equipment where there is clear economic benefit.
Generally we will favour projects based in a particular area over those taking a broader approach. You will need to describe the place in which you are working and tell us why its economy needs rebuilding. You will need to show us that you have thought about how to ensure that any money we provide is spent as locally as possible. The request to us must be for something that is charitable though you do not have to be a registered charity to apply. If you, or we, are unsure about the charitable status of your proposal we will take advice from the Charity Commission.
