A Bed Every Night

Greater Manchester Mayor's Charity focuses on ending homelessness in Greater Manchester by funding both immediate relief and longer-term prevention. It tends to support local frontline charities, community-led neighbourhood projects, and collaborative initiatives that improve access to wellbeing, housing stability, and basic essentials for people at risk of or experiencing homelessness. The charity is also distinctive for using partnership-based and seasonal funding models, including seed funding for campaigns and place-based community funds.
Primarily Greater Manchester-focused, with seasonal small-grants rounds, collaborative seed funding, and occasional rapid-response support for urgent frontline needs. Grants are typically modest to medium-sized (for example, up to £10,000 in the small grants programme), and some streams are invite-only or closed between rounds rather than accepting open unsolicited proposals.

Watch for seasonal application windows on the charity website, as several programmes open and close periodically. Do not assume open access: some streams explicitly say no unsolicited proposals, and emergency funding is handled case-by-case, so organisations should contact the Charity directly if they have an urgent frontline need.
