We are offering grants of up to £3,000 for community-led projects that improve health and wellbeing in the Pilling Park and North City Centre neighbourhoods. The boundries for these areas can be viewed on this PDF and this interactive map.

What kinds of projects are eligible?

Anything that helps tackle health inequalities and bring people together. We are open to a range of ideas. Projects could include:

  • Community gardening or cooking sessions
  • Peer support groups
  • Activities that reduce loneliness or isolation
  • Creative or physical wellbeing projects
  • Sports, fitness or youth engagement activities

Who can apply?

  • Charities, social enterprises and community organisations
  • Local groups with a constitution and basic policies in place
  • Residents with ideas - no formal group needed; we can help you set one up or match you with a partner

The grant board will accept applications from residents and organisations based in the neighbourhood but any group delivering a project within Pilling Park or North City Centre is also welcome to apply.

How are decisions made?

Local people and organisations in each neighbourhood review bids through a supportive “approve and improve” process. Instead of a simple yes or no, the resident‑led panel gives feedback and works with you to strengthen your idea before making a final decision.

What happens after?

If your project is funded, we’ll ask you to complete a simple impact form at the end. It helps us understand what worked well and what difference your project made. The form is short, and we’re happy to help if you need support
