IKEA and the National Lottery Community Fund (NLCF) have joined in partnership to provide £1.5 million in funding to ‘grow thriving, resilient and sustainable communities’ across the UK.

The aim is to build on the energy, creativity and practices of communities coming together during the COVID-19 pandemic, through local activities and the renewal of community spaces.

A range of not-for-profit organisation from across the UK can apply. Full details will be provided once the scheme launches.

The scheme will open for applications on 30 June 2021. It will close upon either the receipt of 1,500 applications or 14 July 2021, whichever comes first.
