Applications Open for Small Charity Week

Applications are now open for the Small Charity Week 2026 match funding campaign, delivered in partnership with Big Give and Global’s Make Some Noise.

The campaign supports small charities to maximise their fundraising through match funding, providing vital unrestricted income. Thanks to generous Champion funders, including players of People’s Postcode Lottery, public donations made during the campaign will be doubled.

This year, the campaign will support more charities than ever before. For the first time, UK-based small charities working internationally are eligible to apply, alongside increased funding opportunities for eligible charities in Scotland and Wales.

The campaign will run from 22–29 June 2026, aligning with Small Charity Week.

Applications close at 5.00pm on 11 February 2026.
