Last month, community and charity groups in the London region were able to apply to our Strong Foundation Grant for a share of the £25,000 fund.

This is the second fund, out of eight available via the Action Funder platform across UK locations this year. See details of our most recent Bristol awardees here >>

Following the 4-week application window, successful submissions were shortlisted and a judging panel of Sir Robert McAlpine representatives selected the winning projects. This made for a challenging process as over 60 projects applied for a share of our Strong Foundations Grant!

To make their decisions, the judges focused on the London projects that helped increase community cohesion whilst boosting wellbeing. They were able to award organisations covering a diversity of themes, including climate and nature, mental health and wellbeing, as well as education and employment.

Congratulations to all our awardees, as well as Safely Booted who we are able to supply with PPE thanks to the support from our supply chain partners.
