Local charities & good causes can apply to receive up to £20,000 in funding from the People's Postcode Lottery

Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Local charities and good causes are being encouraged to apply for funding of over £3million that has been raised by the players of People’s Postcode Lottery.

Applications are open from Wednesday until Wednesday, February 20. The Lottery welcomes applications from social enterprises, voluntary groups and registered charities.

Grants are on offer between £500 and £20,000.

The financial support is available through three different trusts that are all funded entirely by players of People’s Postcode Lottery with the sole purpose of supporting people and their communities across Great Britain.

Sports groups for military veterans, counselling support services for young carers and accessible play parks are just a few examples of the over 1,600 projects that were successful last year.
