Applications for our Small Grants Programme are now closed. Thank you to everyone who submitted an application - we will be in touch in due course.

Old Oak and Park Royal Development Corporation (OPDC) is excited to launch another round of our Small Grants Programme.

The Small Grants Programme was designed to support grass-roots initiatives and less established community organisations in the OPDC area. This exciting opportunity will provide grants of between £1,000 and £7,000 for projects to be delivered from April 2024 – March 2025.

We are looking for residents, businesses, organisations, and community groups who are already working within the community or are looking to make a difference to the local community.

We are inviting proposals from community groups, individuals, charities, community organisations and others who currently work or are looking to work with communities in the London Boroughs of Brent, Ealing and Hammersmith and Fulham.

We are looking to support projects and initiatives that:

  • Support the cost of-living crisis
  • Contribute to the work of unsung heroes and voices that tend to go unheard
  • Benefit young people, up to the age of 21
  • Projects that focus on health and wellbeing

Other projects can also include, but not be limited to the following ideas:

  • Gaining new skills and knowledge that will increase chances of employment (educational workshops)
  • Environmental changes for all to enjoy (recycled and sustainable art, gardening clubs)
  • Improved mental and physical health and wellbeing for young people and families (workshops, food banks)
  • Better community cohesion (content and events for the community); community pride (film productions, blogs, content) and
  • Lessening loneliness and isolation (outreach project, intergenerational community arts)

The closing date for applications is Monday 29th January 2024, 11.59 PM.

If you have ambitions to support your community through exciting projects but need a helping hand with funding, apply today by filling in our survey on this page!
