Community Investment Fund

Our Community Investment Fund is available to support groups working in our communities.

The fund can be used to start or develop community-led projects that will benefit our tenants and customers, as well as the wider community.

The Community Investment Fund can be accessed in three ways:

  • Community Investment Fund panel – for applications over £500
  • Community Support Grant – for applications up to £500
  • Soup Dragon’s Den – for applications up to £1,000

Our Community Investment Fund is facilitated by a group of colleagues and tenants who meet quarterly to consider the applications received and decide if funding should be awarded.
