FUNDING: Grocers’ Charity Small Grants – enquire by 31 Aug

UK registered charities working in a wide range of areas can apply for one-off small grants through a two-stage application process.

The Grocers’ Charity typically provides one-off grants up to £5,000 for UK registered charities with a turnover of under £500,000.

The charity supports work in the areas of:

  • Relief of Hardship
  • Children and Young People
  • the Elderly
  • Disability and Inclusion
  • Health
  • Military
  • the Arts
  • Environment and Conservation.

Eligibility criteria are available for each of the above and you can see examples and information on previous grants awarded.

The next deadline for initial applications is 31 August 2026. 

Up to 3 weeks after the deadline, you will receive an email letting you know if your initial application will proceed to the second stage.

 Trustees meet four times a year to review grant applications in December, March, April and June. 

After submitting a second-stage application form, the funder will let you know at which grant meeting they will consider your application.
