The Nation lottery Community Fund

Raised by National Lottery players, The National Lottery Community Fund awards money to fund great ideas that help communities to thrive. The amount available for funding can vary and all funding decisions they are making for the next six months will prioritise getting funding to groups best placed to support their communities at this vital time focusing initially on existing grant-holders and applicants. These include:

  • organisations supporting people who are at high risk from COVID-19
  • organisations supporting communities most likely to face increased demand and challenges as a direct result of COVID-19
  • organisations with high potential to support communities with the direct and indirect impact of COVID-19
