Objectives and outcomes
To build happy, strong, resilient communities by supporting grassroots, not-for-profit projects that enable sustainable outcomes in:
- Mental health Wellbeing & happiness
- Inclusion
- Learning and skills development
The fund is intended to help new groups and activities, to be successful. Applicants will need to indicate how the activity/group can become self-sustaining or able to attract funding from other sources in the longer term.
The fund will award £5,000 twice a year – allowing up to two different projects/ charities or CIC’s per year to apply. You cannot re-apply if you have won funding from the Happiness fund in the last 24 months
