Norfolk Community Foundation

Together with our donors and partners, we have funded 25 community‑led projects worth £228,330, helping young people across Norfolk build skills, confidence and real routes into employment or training. [📸 @VIYproject ]

When we bring local partners together, funding can go further and do more. In Thetford, we joined local partners to fund community‑led projects responding to what people needed most. ow.ly/NyP450Z198K #forThetford #ShineBrighter

During Mental Health Awareness Week, we recognise the importance of our Healthy Young Minds Coalition in supporting children and young people across Norfolk. The Healthy Young Minds Coalition is a collective effort to ensure young people in Norfolk are able to thrive.

Kit is a barrier, but fees are just as significant. Weekly subscriptions can push families out over time as other costs rack up. Our Subs for Clubs fund addresses both. Huge credit to Gareth Southgate for starting this conversation. #ShineBrighter #SubsForClubs #Norfolk

SWAMP, a volunteer‑led group at Morston Pond, used a modest Greening our Communities grant to buy tools to restore local habitats. Local people, caring for the places they love, are powered by Greening our Communities grants. Find out more: norfolkfoundation.com/greening-our-c…

Funding is not the only way communities are supported to grow greener. Through our Good for Good programme, @RedCatSarah helped St Faiths Sunflowers strengthen their health and safety practices as their work expanded.

Congratulations to National Coastwatch Brancaster on your fourth birthday! We are proud to have supported the charity through the Greening Our Communities Fund, the Chiplow Wind Farm Fund and West Norfolk Rural Community Capital Grants #ShineBrighter

Since 2021, Greening our Communities has supported 89 community projects across Norfolk. More than 20,000 people have benefited. Small, practical support can make a big difference when it is shaped by local communities.

This year marks five years of the Greening our Communities Fund. Since 2021, we have backed local people across Norfolk to care for their environment, one place at a time. When local people are supported to act, meaningful change follows.
