Programme Summary

Awards for All Wales is a simple small grants scheme making awards of between £500 and £5,000.

The Awards for All Programme aims to help improve local communities and the lives of people most in need.

Awards for All Wales aims to fund projects that:

  • Support community activity - by helping communities to meet their needs through voluntary action, self-help projects, local facilities or events. (By communities we mean people in a local area or people who share a common interest or need.)
  • Extend access and participation – by encouraging more people to become actively involved in local groups and projects, and by supporting activities that aim to be open and accessible to everyone who wishes to take part.
  • Increase skill and creativity – by supporting activities which help to develop people and organisations, improve skills and raise standards.
  • Improve the quality of life - by supporting local projects that improve people’s opportunities, health, welfare, environment or local facilities, especially those most disadvantaged in society.
