Grant News
Small and medium-sized charities across the UK can apply for funding from the Leeds Building Society Charitable Foundation to support people experiencing homelessness or housing insecurity.
The Foundation offers Small Grants of up to £2,500 to UK registered charities with an annual income under £500,000 for core, project or capital costs.
In addition, Large Grants of up to £75,000 are available to charities with an income of £1 million or less based in Yorkshire or the North East, typically awarded over two to three years to support running costs, staffing and service delivery.
Funding prioritises projects that help people access or sustain a safe and secure home, including support with financial hardship, housing access, tenancy sustainment, and health and wellbeing linked to poor housing. Previously funded projects have included homelessness prevention services, supported accommodation schemes, and initiatives providing essential household items for vulnerable individuals.
Applications are considered across several funding rounds each year. The next closing date for applications is 1 June 2026. Decisions are usually made within around eight weeks.
