Registered charities, not-for-profit organisations, and schools/PTAs can apply for grants of up to £3,000 for projects that are of benefit to their local community.

The funding is made available to support a range of projects focusing on education, environment, children, the disabled, youth activities, and projects that provide clear benefits to local communities.

Applications will be considered from all UK locations. However, organisations based in Essex (including East London), Bridgend (including South Wales), Southampton, Daventry, Manchester and Liverpool – areas close to Ford locations, will be given priority.

Funding will support capital projects such as refurbishments, or expenditure on items such as furniture, equipment, or computers.
