Racial equity programme - Lloyds Foundation

This programme is for small local charities and CICs which are led by and working with people who are experiencing economic inequity because of their race or ethnicity. 

This programme is aimed at registered charities and CICs which are led by and working with people who are experiencing economic inequity because of their race or ethnicity.

Your organisation will be led by the communities you serve, working with people over the long term to help them break free from poverty and achieve their potential. Your organisation will be directly delivering services that help people from racially minoritised communities experiencing significant economic disadvantage.

Under this programme, successful applicants will receive a grant of £75,000 over three years (£25,000 per year), along with a breadth of tailored support aimed at helping strengthen charities and building the knowledge, skills and capabilities of their staff and trustees. Learn more about what to expect from working with us in this way.

The grants will be unrestricted, meaning that you will be able to use the grant to support any costs that further your organisation’s social purpose.

The closing date for applications is 29 May 2025. For more information and to apply, visit: https://www.lloydsbankfoundation.org.uk/funding/racial-equity-programme
