Grants of between £400 and £2,000 are available to local community organisations across the UK for local projects that enable people to lead more active lives, improve mental health and wellbeing and bring people together for events that celebrate their community.
The Asda Foundation has three grant programmes currently open to application, all with a deadline of Friday 24 May 2024. However, they may close early if they become over-subscribed. Early application is therefore advised.
The programme is being managed by the Community Champion in each ASDA store (scroll down to the heading "Who are the Community Champions?"). The Community Champion should be contacted for an application form. A store locator is available on the ASDA website.
Further information and guidance on this and other currently available grant programmes is available on the Foundation’s website.
Applications should be submitted at least 6 weeks before activities are due to begin to give enough processing time and should include:
- Bank statement/paying in slip.
- Confirmation that the group is a not-for-profit organisation, particularly if they’re not a registered charity.
- Digital signature declaration (for applicants not proving a handwritten signature), and
- Group documents (for example, constitution, rules, etc).
