•              Encourage diversity

•              Help people protect local biodiversity or tackle climate change by reducing carbon emissions 

To help people understand more about the Local Community Fund before they apply, the Co-op has created a helpful guide. Check out 'How to discover more about the Local Community Fund' , which explains how the fund is different and the range of benefits it provides. 

When Co-op Members buy selected Co-op branded products and services, 2p for every pound spent goes into their Co-op Membership account and Co-op gives the same to support community organisations and local causes.

Co-op Membership helps support Co-op's national charity partners and Local Community Fund causes. See www.coop.co.uk/membership

Co-op Members will continue to help thousands of grassroots community projects through the Local Community Fund by selecting a cause to support. Since 2016, Co-op Members have raised more than £85m for over 30,000 projects.

Click here to apply – the deadline is midnight on Sunday 12 June.
