Funding Programme to Support Vulnerable People - Very Short Deadline (Scotland)

In response to the cost-of-living crisis, the Bank of Scotland Foundation has reopened its Energise Programme to improve the quality of life for some of Scotland’s most vulnerable people.

The programme offers two-year unrestricted grants of £40,000 (£20,000 per year) to help small and local charities continue providing vital services and becoming more sustainable.

Energise has two funding tiers based on the income of charities:

  • charities with an income of below £50,000 are eligible for £20,000 (£10,000 per year over 2 years)
  • charities with an income of £50,000 - £150,000 are eligible for £40,000 (£20,000 per year over 2 years)

The funding can be used for core, delivery, project, and general running costs, enabling charities to use their funding in the way that helps them best.

Organisations must have an annual income of less than £150,000 to be eligible to apply.

The application deadline is 12pm on the 18th December 2024.
