Grants - how we support our communities

We’re committed to improving the wellbeing and quality of life of our customers and developing thriving and resilient communities.

Our grants programmes deliver investment directly into the heart of our communities to improve the wellbeing and quality of life of our customers and to develop thriving and resilient communities. We fund a range of organisations that share our priority themes which include:

• Health and wellbeing
• Employment support
• Reducing isolation
• Young people
• Financial and digital inclusion
• The environment
• Equality, Diversity and Inclusion

Our Digital Inclusion Fund is NOW OPEN for applications – digital support for our customers and communities!

We’ve launched a new Digital Inclusion Fund to help SNG customers and communities gain the digital skills, confidence and access they may need to fully benefit from online opportunities and services. Grants of between £300 and £1,000 are available for local groups supporting SNG customers to get online and learn and develop their digital skills. 

The fund aims to support projects that improve digital access, skills, and connectivity - through group sessions or one-to-one support - helping people get online and stay connected in our SNG communities. It is part of our wider mission of ensuring more customers can benefit from the opportunities technology provides, helping them gain digital skills, confidently use online services, and make the most of tools that make life easier
