Local charities invited to apply for £75,000 funding

Charities in Salisbury are being invited to apply for funding of up to £75,000.

Specialist charity insurance firm Ansvar has launched its UK-wide search for three ‘outstanding charities’ to support, offering a donation of £75,000 to each over the next three years.

The insurance firm is looking to support charities that focus on helping children and young people to make positive lifestyle choices. This could include promoting safety, sports and exercise, mental wellbeing, or healthy eating; registered charities from the city are being invited to nominate.

Charities have less than two weeks to submit their nomination.  

From all the nominations received, three charities will be selected to benefit from funding, each receiving £25,000 per year for three years, starting in January 2025.

Charities interested in applying are asked to initially submit a short application explaining their work and how the funding would be utilised, whether that’s to support an ongoing project or one that is about to begin. 

Applications can be made directly via the Ansvar website - Programme of Giving 2024 - Ansvar - the application process closes on Monday 4th November 2024.

Sarah Cox, Managing Director of Ansvar said, “As a specialist insurer for the charity sector, we witness the incredible work these organisations do every day. Our Programme of Giving is a way for us to give back and provide support, encompassing our Community Hub, which is free, bookable office space we offer to charities and not for profit organisations, our colleague volunteering and fundraising, and our three-year cycle of grant giving.”

Winning charities will be notified by Friday 13th December.
