Quick Summary

Area-based funds allow you to target your giving to a particular geography whether it is a ward, a borough or multiple boroughs.  

In detail

From our early days, we have been passionate about enabling local people to make a difference to the communities in which they live. Our area based funds respond to local appetite for giving and the needs faced by communities in those regions. They are as diverse as the areas they cover with some being set up by single donors and others rooted in collaboration across various donors. Our largest area based fund is the Lambeth Community Fund which brings donors together across the borough to tackle worklessness in their communities.

Area-based funds set up by single donors (individuals, companies or local authorities) start at £25,000 and enable you to target your giving to a particular geography.

Area-based funds based on collaboration between donors currently exist in Lambeth, Bromley, Westminster and Wandsworth.

We say

"Our area-based fundholders are able to directly support the parts of London which they live or work in and care about the most. They make a difference to their local communities and help to improve the lives and conditions for others in the area."

They say

“Bromley Community Fund provides, in my opinion, the most exciting and positive opportunity that I have come across to help and support the variety of small local charities and other voluntary organisations in a way that is simply not available elsewhere.”
