Grant support for community groups and organisations to work on local projects that help make Exeter such a great place to live.

The Exeter Grants Programme aims to support groups and organisations to use their passion, skills, experience and knowledge to work together to make a difference in their community and create change by supporting projects that:

• Help people to help themselves and each other
• Build on the strengths of people and communities
• Connect people and organisations within and across communities

The Exeter Grants Programme will support projects that have a focus on one or more of our 6 priority themes which are to:

1. Address Inequalities 
2. Improve Health and Wellbeing 
3. Get People Active 
4. Support Communities Working Together to Address Local Needs 
5. Encourage Volunteering 
6. Improve Where We Live
