Following a March fundraising event, a new small grant funding pot has been created for charities in Richmond upon Thames which are supporting people experiencing or at risk of homelessness in the Richmond borough.
OneRichmond is accepting expressions of interest from local organisations whose work supports people experiencing or at risk of homelessness.
This includes:
- providing immediate relief, eg. crisis support, support with food, hygiene, shelter
- offering advice, guidance, administrative support
- delivery of services not directly related to homelessness where homelessness/housing insecurity exacerbates or complicates the needs of service users – eg. mental or physical health support
- delivery of services that support people or groups at higher risk of becoming homeless, eg. young people transitioning out of the care system, refugees, people experiencing domestic violence
- any other service or project that provides support to people experiencing or at risk of homelessness.
If you believe your organisation may be eligible, in the first instance, send an email to hello@onerichmond.org.uk with the following information:
- a short paragraph detailing the work you do, and how your work/project meets the above criteria
- an indication of how much funding you would be looking for (considering the total grant pot is just over £10,000)
Expressions of interest will assessed as they are received, so the sooner you get in touch, the better.
