Asda Foundation’s Investing in Spaces and Places

Opens: 6th February 2023

Funding for small, local groups across the UK to improve community spaces and places where local people can be together and thrive.

For a second year in a row, the Asda Foundation is offering large grants of up to £25,000 for local groups across the UK who are working to improve spaces in the heart of their local community.

In 2023, there is a total funding pot of £500,000.

Grants of between £10,000 and £25,000 are available to cover between 25% and 75% of the total project costs for projects that address at least one of the following categories:

Building repair (external or internal) for spaces and places which already exist but are in disrepair and therefore limit the usability, safety or level of expectations for other to use the space.
Building development to enhance a space already in use.
Outdoor development to develop outside space for the benefit of the community, particularly outdoor spaces which benefit everyone and can be accessed by large groups of people.
Projects need to align with at least one of the Foundation’s aims:

Create and/or develop safe and inclusive community spaces for groups to meet and bring people together.
Create or improve spaces which can be used by a range groups on a regular basis.
Support groups to deliver long-lasting projects focused on long-term community impact.
Groups must be in a position to begin work on their project before the end of 2023.
Applications are accepted from local not-for-profit organisations with an income of less than £250,000 and unrestricted reserves below £100,000. This includes registered charities, CICs, companies, unincorporated club or association, small community groups or government entities/public bodies.

Groups based in Chesterfield & North East Derbyshire can apply via the Sheffield Drakehouse Asda Store, please email Community_SheffieldMosborough@asda.co.uk.
