The Cumbria Community Foundation exists to benefit disadvantaged people and communities by making grants to support relevant charitable or voluntary organisations, which make a difference within their local area. Through the English Lakes Hotels Sustainability Fund, the Foundation provides grants of up to £10,000 for charitable not-for-profit groups working hard to protect and promote the landscape, environment and heritage through conservation and improvement of the physical and natural environment in Windermere, Ambleside, Morecambe and Lancaster.

The Coastal Communities Fund, which is financed through the Crown Estate's Marine activities, provides grants in excess of £50,000  per project to support the economic development of UK coastal communities.
