The One Stop Community
Deadline:
The One Stop Community Partnership programme offers support for community organisations located within two miles of a One Stop store. It provides an initial £1,000 grant and creates a long-term package of tailored assistance delivered jointly by the One Stop Community Team and the local store team.
Successful applicants work with their local store to develop activities that address food poverty, assist vulnerable or elderly residents, support low-income families, run youth sports teams or improve the environment through waste reduction or recycling.
The One Stop Community Partnership programme invites local community groups to apply for funding of up to £1,000, alongside the opportunity to work in partnership with their local One Stop.
This programme is designed to support community groups or organisations operating within two miles of a One Stop store and which are:
- Tackling food poverty
- Supporting the vulnerable
- Supporting the elderly
- Supporting low-income families
- Running youth sports teams
- Reducing and/or recycling waste
- Improving the environment
Please note: we can’t support food bank or breakfast club projects that are requesting funding to purchase food items. Please contact your local One Stop store manager as it may be possible to discuss setting up food bank donation point at your local store. Funding can be awarded to food banks for equipment such as fridges, freezers or to purchase storage units.
