The Leathersellers’ Company has announced that its next application round for the Small Grants Programme will reopen for applications on the 3rd February 2025.
This funding is available to small charities and Charitable Incorporated Organisations (CIOs) that provide essential services for vulnerable people in deprived communities across the UK. The Small Grants Programme awards grants of up to £5,000 to organisations with an annual income of less than £200,000.
Partnerships between organisations are encouraged.
The number of applications will be capped, and submissions will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis; specifically, the first 45 applications received after each round open will be considered.
There are eight application windows throughout the year, and each window will close once 45 applications have been received.
The application process is highly competitive. For example, on November 4th, 2024, the entire allocation of applications was exhausted in just 15 minutes after opening.
