Micro Grants
The BID is excited to be establishing a rolling micro grants programme from the BID levy and voluntary contributions to support school, community and charity partners.
Avoiding duplication with other local funds and grants from developers in the area, the City Council and Mayor of London; this Grant is intended to bridge a gap, assisting groups and projects to access vital resources that they would otherwise be ineligible for.
Sitting alongside the generosity of companies and their staff, the Grant will complement donations and campaigns led by businesses, who regularly collect and donate food, clothing, books, furniture, IT and even abandoned cycles to local schools and charities through the Partnership.
The Grant will be overseen by our BID members - who will help shape the criteria, application and assessment framework. We will also work closely with the Council to ensure the Grant adds real value locally.
The first round of applications will be announced in autumn 2025.
