Current community grant recipients

For information on previous community projects we’ve supported via the Household Support Fund, some of which may still be running, see Our work so far. Contact these organisations directly to find out more about their funded projects.

Until the end of March 2025, Hampshire County Council, in line with the DWP Household Support Fund grant criteria, will make available £250,000 in community grants to enable organisations to apply for funding to support vulnerable residents, through community-based projects.
