Twenty six projects have been awarded funding to support a range of projects, taking the total amount we have funded via ActionFunder to more than £450,000
Collectively, six of our projects have funded 26 different worthy causes in London and Manchester. These are in addition to recipients of the Armed Forces Community Fund, which were announced last month.
It takes the total amount we’ve awarded via the ActionFunder platform to more than £450,000 since 2021.
The grants aim to provide the financial backing and support needed to turn ideas into action, strengthen existing projects, and foster a sense of community empowerment.
