Voluntary, community, and public sector organisations can apply for grants to support projects that bring people together and make a lasting, positive impact across Wales.
The funding is available through the National Lottery Community Fund’s People and Places programme, which invests £20 million annually to help communities work collaboratively on what matters most to them.
The programme focuses on four key missions:
- helping communities come together,

- enabling people to live healthier lives.
Two levels of funding are available:
- Medium Grants ranging from £20,001 to £100,000,
- Large Grants from £100,001 to £500,000 — for projects lasting up to five years.
Funding can be used for both capital and revenue costs.
Applications should focus on underrepresented communities. These may include:
- older people

- women
- ethnically minoritised people
- faith-based communities
