Funding Friday
Fat Beehive Foundation
The Fat Beehive Foundation provides small grants to registered charities for websites and digital projects.
Small charities can apply for up to £2,500 towards a distinct digital project such as website design and development, creating new online resources or improving digital accessibility. The aim is to help under-resourced charities to reach more people, raise more funds and deliver more impact.
The foundation is particularly keen to support traditionally hard-to-fund organisations.
The grants cannot be used for core costs such as salaries, training or web hosting.
Registered charities with an annual turnover of under £1m can apply.
The next deadline for applications is 31 March 2026
Ironmongers’ Company
Registered charities can apply to the Ironmongers’ Company for funding for projects that provide educational opportunities for disadvantaged young people and that encourage the study of science subjects. There is also funding to promote the craft of ironwork.
Grants to Charities – for educational activities that develop learning, motivation and skills for children and young people (under 25s) from disadvantaged backgrounds. Grants are normally between £3,000 and £10,000 and the amount requested should cover a significant proportion of the total project costs.
Application deadline: Grants to charities – Spring 2026 round not yet open.
