Grassroots Grants Guidance Update - New Average Income Threshold

The Grassroots Grants Programme has now been re-opened.

Since the programme was launched the Community Development Foundation who administer this funding on behalf of the Office for the Third Sector has recently changed one of the programmes eligibility criteria.

For groups previously applying to this small grants programme the average income of organisations needed to be less than £20,000 over the last 3 years. This income threshold has now been increased to £30,000.

Those groups who previously looked at applying to this programme that then found that they were ineligible due to the £20,000 income threshold may now be able to apply for this funding again as the threshold has gone up to £30,000.

For further information on the programme please click the Grassroots Grants link on the right hand side of the VAL home page.
