This fund will consider applications for any charitable purpose, including core costs.

One Community Foundation aims to strengthen local communities by providing funding to help build a sustainable and confident voluntary sector in Kirklees.

That's why, thanks to our generous donors, from May 4th, 2023, community projects and registered local charities can apply for up to £3,000 from our Community Grants Programme.

Many funds are considered by our Community Grants Programme grants panel at the same time. All the funds in this program will consider applications for projects and core costs.

Please remember that if you were successful in round 9, you are not eligible to apply for round 10 or 11. This is due to the change in criteria which allows for one active grant within a twelve month period.

Round 10:
Opens: Monday 4th May 2026
Closes: Friday 19th June 2026

Round 11:
Opens: Monday 21st September 2026
Closes: Friday 6th November 2026
