Welcome to our new website. You may still see some pages from our old site as we move things over.

Who cannot apply

You cannot apply if you have a current grant

We will not accept your application if:

  • your organisation has a current grant from National Lottery Awards for All (from any UK country) that has not finished
  • you’re waiting for a decision on another application to this programme
  • you’re applying to more than one of our programmes for the same project

You’ll need to wait until your current grant is complete, or you’ve had a decision on your other application.

You can reapply if your previous project is complete and your organisation has received less than £20,000 from this programme in the last 12 months. The maximum we can fund in any 12-month period is £20,000.

For arts or sports projects, we can fund up to £10,000 for work lasting up to 12 months.

Organisations we do not fund

We do not accept applications from:

  • individuals or sole traders
  • organisations based outside the UK
  • for-profit companies (including Companies Limited by Shares)
  • organisations applying on behalf of another organisation

Applications from private businesses or consultants

We do not accept applications written for you by private businesses or consultants.
