The Caremark Community Care Fund offers UK groups the chance to win £3,000 for a local project. The fund aims to support ideas that bring people together and create a clear, lasting benefit for the community.
Projects can include equipment for inclusive sports or activity groups, improvements to a village hall or community centre, supplies for a community garden, equipment for food banks or community larders, updates to a charity’s space, or new equipment for a pre‑school or playground. Because the fund welcomes a wide range of ideas, groups can choose the project that best meets their local needs.
A panel of judges will select 12 projects, choosing one from each UK region. After that, these shortlisted projects will move into a public vote on social media. The three projects with the most votes will each receive a £3,000 grant.
To enter, applicants must explain how their project would benefit their community, provide contact and organisational details, and include at least one photograph that shows what the funding will support. Groups can apply using the online form, by email or by post. Applicants must be aged 18 or over and must confirm they have consent for any identifiable people in photographs.
Deadline for entries: 31 May 2026
