Social Action Fund - Round one recipients

The Social Action Fund has been created to support the Government’s vision for a Big Society by funding proposals that will embed long term increases in giving either:

• time - volunteering, time-banking
• resources - money, property, fixed assets or equipment

The funding will enable established and proven models of social action to scale up and grow, creating new opportunities for people across the country to make a difference in their communities.

The fund is worth over £20 million, delivered through two rounds. It is being managed by The Social Investment Business on behalf of the Cabinet Office. Round 1 closed on the 2 November 2011. The organisations listed were awarded grants through round 1. Round 2 closed on the 3 February 2012.
