Following further funding from The National Lottery Community Fund, Consortium and its Community Partners are inviting applications to the second round of the LGBT+ Futures: Equity Fund.
The Fund aims to help intersectional LGBT+ organisations grow and influence the LGBT+ voluntary sector in more equitable ways, ensure they are better equipped to work with their beneficiaries and gain more confidence to develop relationships with and/or apply for grants through other funders.
The Fund will supports user-led LGBT+ organisations that are led by and for:
o D/deaf, disabled, neurodivergent LGBT+ people;
o LGBTQIA+ women;
o LGBT+ people of the global majority;
o Older LGBT+ people; and/or
o Trans and non-binary people.
Project proposals must be based in England and work with targeted under-represented and under-resourced communities.
A total budget of £500,000 is available through small grants of between £100 and £25,000 for organisational running costs, projects and organisational/leadership development.
The fund will close to applications at midday (12 noon) on Thursday 21st November 2024.
Applications will be assessed on a rolling basis with decisions expected to be made within 4 months from the date each grant application is submitted.
