Asda Foundation - Outdoor Community Spaces Fund
Asda Foundation recognises the importance of having safe and accessible outdoor spaces in communities across the UK, so this year we will be providing up to £500,000 of grant funding to help grassroots groups improve or transform their local outdoor community spaces.
Whether it's cleaning up a green space, delivering collaborative growing projects or transforming an unused area for local people to use, the Outdoor Community Spaces Fund can be used to create or enhance an outdoor space near you.
This grant is for projects which meet at least one of the following aims:
Transform an outdoor area, creating greener and more engaging community spaces.
Create or enhance community growing projects.
Enable community clean ups (grants for community clean ups only will be capped at £500).
I've attached a copy of the guidance notes for you to look through so you'll have time to get ready to make an application when the grant opens at noon on Tuesday 14th January 2025.
Please do keep checking the Asda Foundation website from Thursday 9th January at lunchtime, it will include:

Although the application window is open until 11th February, I would encourage you to apply as soon as you can as this grant round will close early as soon as the UK budget is reached - let's see how many groups can get approved to improve the community around our store!
