Supporting grant-making
As a community-led intermediary funder, we work with funders and grant-making bodies to support the design and delivery of supportive grant programmes
We believe that everyone in the UK should experience the power of participation to shape a just and inclusive future. One of our methods for achieving this is through the management and support of grant programmes. We flex and adapt our offer to meet the needs of the client and the objectives of each fund, but are always guided by three key principles – which we call the three A’s of grant management, ensuring programmes are accessible, accountable, and appropriate.
Through this three A’s approach, our team works with funders to help them navigate power-imbalances, so they can successfully reach, accommodate and support people and initiatives they might otherwise have otherwise struggled to.
