by Jenni Bevis-Lacey

Advance notice of small grant programme for up to £5,000 per project to improve community spaces and deliver sustainable activities for communities across the UK
You are receiving this email as we have identified you as someone who will be able to share information with organisations and groups who may not have applied for funding from The National Lottery Community Fund before, and may be less familiar with our application process.


We recognise some groups would like to apply for funding but are not as experienced as others. We are contacting networks and organisations to explain our eligibility criteria and support those who may not have applied to us. We believe this will help some groups to reach the same starting point as those who are already familiar with how to apply for our National Lottery funds.

On 22 June, we will open a new funding programme called Places Called Home which is a partnership between The National Lottery Community and the world’s largest home furnishing retailer.
Places Called Home will offer eligible groups funding awards of between £1,000 and £5,000 for activities and equipment that meet at least two of the following criteria:

Build?on the relationships created during the?COVID-19 pandemic?to increase community activity and the number of people taking part.
Encourage people to work together, creating opportunities for communities to live in a sustainable and healthy way.
· Raise awareness amongst the public of the importance of connected households, neighbourhoods and resilient communities.
· Develop a new idea, activity or way to come together that has emerged in response to the pandemic.
· Revive?or redesign?community and common spaces to encourage shared community activities.

Places Called Home opens for applications on 22 June 2021, and will close to applications when we have received 1,500 applications or on 6 July 2021, whichever comes first.
You can apply online from 22 June, following this link https://www.tnlcommunityfund.org.uk/funding or you can email placescalledhome@tnlcommunityfund.org.uk to request a pdf form to complete offline if you’d prefer.


If you’ve not applied for funding from The National Lottery Community Fund before, you’ll need to ensure that your group or organisation is eligible to apply to us. If your group or organisation is NOT eligible, even if we love your idea we cannot award a funding.

Eastleigh community pantry

by Jenni Bevis-Lacey

In the New Year, RCS Community Pantry will be opening on the ground of the Cable Works Building in Eastleigh.

The Pantry initiative is designed to support people with food deprivation, helping them to escape or move on from their current emergency with a ‘helping hand’ approach.

The RCS Pantry provides a holistic approach in servicing the needs of the community as it gives additional support on budgeting, wellbeing, adult learning and employment.
Food provided in the pantry will be fresh, frozen and general foods.

Each week there is a weekly meal deal provided with a recipe to help everyone have a wholesome meal.

Each member will be able to do a weekly shop at a small recommended donation charge of £5.00 per visit and receive a minimum of £15 worth of food.


The pantry has no restrictions on becoming a member. It is a simple and easy process by completing and returning the attached membership form to rcscommunitypantry@romsey.hants.sch.uk or by calling the pantry team on 01794522106.


Please note if emergency help is needed between now and the Eastleigh pantry opening, RCS can supply from the Romsey Pantry with collection at Cable Works.
