Funding to explore social change

Active Derbyshire, Active Notts, Funding, News

The Paul Hamlyn Foundation has grants up to £20,000, along with flexible support packages available to individuals, groups, and small organisations to explore new ideas for social change through their Ideas and Pioneers Fund.

The fund welcomes ideas that challenge injustice, are still taking shape, and that have long term potential.

Funding can support research to develop the idea; gathering evidence for a campaign, bringing people or communities together to build power, and paying the applicant or others to deliver these activities.

Please be aware that funding is only available for ideas that have a charitable purpose. Additionally, applications made by 18-30 year olds will take priority, but consideration will be given to applicants of all ages.

The deadline for applications is Monday 1st December 2025 at 1pm.
