Voluntary and community organisations operating in the former coalfield areas of England can apply for grants of up to £2,000 to provide support to low-income families in need.

The funding is being made available through the Coalfields Regeneration Trusts Small Grants Programme.

The type of projects supported include:

• food poverty projects;
• information, advice & guidance projects;
• social groups;
• projects supporting the homeless
• or any other project which would benefit those in crisis.

50% of the grant can be for capital items such as any equipment needed to deliver a project. For example, any cooking equipment for a holiday hunger project or lunch club.

No application deadline is given.
