Extended Description
The Bettys and Taylors Group Coronavirus Community Fund is administered by Two Ridings Community Foundation and provided by the Bettys and Taylors Group as part of its community grants programme.
The funding is intended for small local groups whose work is helping local communities to reconnect and recover from some of the effects of the coronavirus/COVID-19 pandemic.
The grants can help with running and organisational development costs for groups where a small amount of money will make a real difference to their long-term sustainability.
Latest Information
There will be two funding rounds in 2021. The first deadline for applications is 22 February 2021, for decisions in late March 2021. The second deadline is 13 September 2021 for decisions in October.
Key Criteria
Groups must have an annual income of below £200,000 (based on their last annual accounts and/or current forecasts) and must be at least one of the following:
- Constituted voluntary and community groups.
- Registered charities.
- Co-operatives.
- Social enterprises.
- Community interest companies (CICs will be subject to additional scrutiny as outlined in our grant making policy).
While applications will be considered from groups across the whole of Yorkshire, priority may be given to projects in the areas surrounding Bettys Cafe Tea Rooms and the Bettys and Taylors head office in York, Harrogate, Northallerton and Ilkley. Priority will also be given to groups working in disadvantaged communities, whether this be by reason of geography or other characteristics.
