Small Grants for Workplace Wellbeing Fund Launched Today!

We're pleased to announce the launch of our Small Grants for Workplace Wellbeing fund.

This grant programme has been designed to enable VCSE sector groups & organisations to implement ideas that support employee and/or volunteer wellbeing.

We will accept a wide variety of proposals, provided there is a clear rationale for how the proposal is linked to wellbeing. Examples of the types of initiatives that will be eligible for funding include:

In the workplace:

  • A team day or social event
  • Coaching sessions
  • Backfill to enable an organisation to work towards the Healthy Workplace award

Personal wellbeing:

  • Entry to sports facilities
  • Entry to green spaces
  • Access to a wellbeing app

Applications

  • 18 September 2023: Applications open for Gloucestershire VCSE sector groups/organisations that are working towards or have achieved the Healthy Workplace award and have a turnover under £500,000.
  • 2 October 2023: Applications open for any Gloucestershire VCSE sector group/organisation with a turnover under £500,000.

We anticipate that there will be a high demand for grants and will close the opportunity to apply as soon as we have sufficient applications.
