Lloyds Bank Foundation for England and Wales has opened for initial applications to its Invest grants programmes.

The Foundation provides funding to charities and charitable incorporated organisations (CIOs) in England and Wales through the following two programmes:

  • Invest – a flexible, long-term core funding programme for charities delivering clear, targeted outcomes for disadvantaged people. These grants are from £10,000 up to a maximum of £25,000 per year for two or three years, with the opportunity for continuation funding for a further period – up to six years in total.
  • Enable – a smaller and shorter grants programme for charities that have identified clear development needs. This funding aims to help the organisations deliver their mission more effectively. These grants are up to a total £15,000 over two years. The Enable grant programme now accepts applications on an ongoing basis. There are no deadlines.
