Funding

Lancaster District CVS offers a funding advice service to voluntary, community and faith groups. We have access to the Grantfinder service as well as other resources, and can search for funding opportunities on your behalf.

Lancaster District CVS administers the local fund The Galbraith Trust as well as The Lancaster District LSP fund, Community Grants. We are also working in partnership with Community Foundation for Lancashire on the Grassroots Grants programme to support your Grassroots Grants applications.

All of these are significant funding opportunities for local voluntary and community organisations, and Lancaster District CVS are here to help you to maximise chances of success. Please see the links for further information about these local grants, as well as application forms and guidance.

For information and advice about other potential funding sources contact the Voluntary Sector Development Work team on 01524 555900.

To obtain further benefits to your organisation, you may also be interested in membership of LDCVS.
