Cheapside Business Alliance is proud to announce the launch of our 4th Community Fund to support local charities and projects across the Cheapside area.
This year, the fund will focus on projects that promote collaborative climate action and long-term sustainability, as well as protect and enhance the local environment. We are also looking for projects that create opportunities for young people to support their employment and engagement with the City.
These themes feature strongly in our Business Plan 2025-2030 and aim to contribute to wider climate goals, as well as build a healthier community for the businesses of Cheapside.
Community organisations and charities can apply for up to £5,000 in grant funding for projects that meet these objectives, out of the £15,000 available in this year’s Fund.
The new fund builds on the continuing success of our previous funds, which to date have supported just under 1,000 people across the Cheapside area.
Applications will be considered on a rolling basis ahead of the 29th August 2025 deadline.
