SYCF Small Grants Fund
These grants are intended for small, developing and less well-resourced groups and organisations from across South Yorkshire, where small amounts of funding can make a real difference.
Organisations/groups do not have to be a registered charity and the majority of grants are one-off payments of between £250 and £1,500.

We welcome applications from all community and voluntary groups and organisations operating for the benefit of South Yorkshire communities. Groups must therefore have beneficiaries who live in South Yorkshire and be locally led and run. This includes locally constituted and managed branches of national or large charities.
Which groups or activities will be prioritised for funding?
Higher priority will be given to those applications that can demonstrate how they will address some of the following needs. If your group or activity will not meet these priorities then you can still apply but it is less likely that you will receive funding from us:
- Groups that respond to their communities' needs.
- Activities or projects that will support people whose needs can be clearly demonstrated.
- Groups whose main activities focus upon the advancement of education, promotion of good health or the relief of poverty and sickness.
- Groups that work in collaboration with other local community groups.
- Activities or projects that will engage people who face discrimination or disadvantage.
- Activities or projects that will produce a wide range of benefits and provide good value for money.
