Grants of £2,000 are available through the Pears Action Learning Fund, for 25 organisations in the Welsh third sector willing to take part in research and action learning.
The Fund runs alongside a Trust and Foundation Project developed by Community Foundation Wales to increase the amount of UK funding coming into Wales by building connections between the Welsh third sector and trusts and foundations based outside of Wales.
The Action Learning Fund hopes to gain a better understanding of the process required to start a successful partnership between grantees and funders and identify good practise that can be shared with others.
Groups that are successful in their bid to take part in this ‘action learning’ will work alongside a Project Officer within Community Foundation Wales. The officer will provide 1:1 support and guidance and will work with them to identify 3-5 funders that are a good match with the focus of their work. The time commitment is expected to be a maximum of one day a week for up to 10 weeks.

There’s still time to apply for grants of £250-£4,000 if you’re a community group or voluntary club working with children & young people in the Scottish Borders.
From Youth Borders, the micro and small grants scheme is part of the Scottish Government’s ‘Get Into Summer’. It will see Youth Borders administer grants for play equipment and summer experiences and activities delivered by voluntary and community groups benefiting children and young people of all ages across the Scottish Borders.
Priority will be given to groups helping those most likely to be experiencing continued disadvantage and who will therefore have been particularly adversely affected by Covid-19.
The application deadline is 30 June.

The Places of Worship protective security funding scheme is now open for applications.
— Home Office (@ukhomeoffice) June 4, 2021
It provides funding for protective security measures, such as CCTV and intruder alarms, to places of worship that are vulnerable to hate crime.
Funding is available for protective security measures, such as CCTV, fencing, and intruder alarms, to places of worship and associated faith community centres that are vulnerable to hate crime.
The places of worship (PoW) protective security funding scheme is a government commitment in the 2016-2020 hate crime action plan. This scheme is intended to reduce the risk and impact of hate crime at places of worship and associated faith community centres.
The scheme is open to all faiths, apart from the Jewish community, which is not eligible for funding from this scheme because a separate commitment has been made to fund security measures at Jewish community sites through a grant administered by the Community Security Trust.
Applications can be made for the installation of up to 3 protective security measures until 23:59 on 2 July 2021.
