Seven Friends Foundation (The) Grants for Unpopular Causes in Deprived Areas (UK) - Deadline: 1 st August 2024

The Seven Friends Foundation has reopened

for applications. It is offering small grants of between £300 and £3,0000 to charities and charitable projects in deprived areas in the UK that are unpopular or do not receive widespread public attention. This could be due to:

• Negative focus within the media,

• Difficulty in accessing statutory, voluntary, and institutional funding,

• Political controversy,

• Because the issue is not typically seen as a charitable cause. Examples of these types of groups or causes could be:

• Asylum seekers and refugees,

• Migrant communities,

• Offenders and ex-offenders,

• People experiencing violence or abuse,

• Sex workers,,.

• Trafficking and modern slavery,

• Dependency or addiction,

• LGBT+,

• Sexual and reproductive health. The foundation has a particular interest in the issue of homelessness and groups at increased risk of homelessness. The programme will primarily support small organisations (annual income up to £300,000), with most grants being under £1,000.
