Funding of £100,000 in Funding Available for Health and Well-being Projects (South West)

Not-for-profit organisations working in communities in Plymouth and South West Devon can apply for grants of up to £10,000 through the Livewell Foundation. The Foundation funds projects that improve health and well-being, reduce mental and physical ill-health, and reduce social isolation. 

Please also note that for 2024-25, the foundation has made a strategic decision to focus more funding towards two key health areas:

  1. Children's mental health
  2. Women's health

This does not exclude other applications however applications which address one or two of these key areas will score additional points at the grant sifting evaluation stage.

The funding can be used for:

  • staff salaries,
  • project activities,
  • running costs,
  • small-scale refurbishment,
  • equipment,
  • organisational development,
  • and core costs.

The funding is available through two grant-making programmes.

Small grants of up to £1,000.  Applications to the small grants programme can be made at any time.

Large grants of up to £10,000.  The closing date for applications for large grants is the 31st December 2024.
