The Welsh Government is offering grants to organisations that wish to improve community facilities which are useful to, and well used by, people in the community.
Grants are available at two levels – small grants of under £25,000 and larger grants of up to £300,000.
The programme is open to community and voluntary sector organisations, including social enterprises. The focus of the programme is on increasing opportunity, creating prosperity for all and developing resilient communities where people are engaged and empowered. All applicants are expected to be working with partners which can come from the public, private or the third sectors.
The opening dates for submitting applications to the scheme are as follows:
- 1 September 2025 – applications open for applications under £25,000
- 1 October 2025 – expressions of interest open for larger applications of up to £300,000.
The Community Facilities Programme is a capital only grant scheme. Grants are available for the physical improvement of community facilities – this could include land and buildings.
