How to apply:
Islington Community Chest

Islington Community Chest is funded by the Islington Strategic Partnership. Grassroots Grants funding is provided by the Office of the Third Sector

To be eligible to apply your organisation or project must be based in Islington and have a turnover of under £100,000. Grassroots Grants funding is available to groups with a turnover of under £20,000.

The Foundation assesses applications in the same way as it does applicants to its main grants programme. All applicants are visited and offered advice on funding, premises and sources of additional support. Only one grant per financial year is available. Organisations can only apply once a year.
