Meet the Funder National Lottery Reaching Communities

The largest funder in England, The National Lottery Community Fund, is implementing changes across its funding programmes in line with its new strategy ‘It Starts With Community’.

These changes came into effect on 1 April 2025. The National Lottery Community Fund will be joining an upcoming online Meet the Funder session to share information about these updates, walk through the application process for the Reaching Communities Fund and answer any questions. Information about the changes, criteria and process can also be accessed prior to the session via this link: Discover our funding programmes for amounts above £20,001 | The National Lottery Community Fund

You will also have the opportunity to attend a one to one session with Saima to talk about your proposal on 23rd June at Bury VCFA or online.

Who is this session for?
This is for organisations working with Bury-based Volunteer, Community & Faith Organisations, be it a small charity or social enterprise.
