About this grant

Rolling small grants of up to £5,000 for local charities and constituted community groups serving Bournemouth, Christchurch, Poole, East Dorset and Purbeck. Funds revenue costs (staff salaries, room hire, training, transport, project resources), core costs (rent, utilities, governance, insurance) and small capital items such as equipment. No application deadlines; decisions usually within five weeks of submission. The Trust's separate Capital Programme (grants over £10,000, 25% match funding) runs in rounds — the Autumn 2026 round is closed and Spring 2027 opens later in 2026.
