Hammersmith United Charities supports local organisations that benefit people in Hammersmith & Fulham, with a clear emphasis on community-led projects, ongoing services, and core costs that strengthen the local voluntary sector. In addition to its almshouse mission for older people, its grantmaking is designed to back practical, place-based work that helps residents and community organisations thrive. It tends to fund small to mid-sized local charities and community groups, with first grants usually modest and a strong preference for work within its defined area of benefit.
Offers competitive local grants up to £15,000, with most first awards under £5,000; also provides selective 3-year grants up to £15,000 per year only to previously funded organisations. Community Grants accept applications on a regular round, while Flexible 3 Year Grants are invite-only/no unsolicited proposals.
Check eligibility carefully: both programmes are restricted to organisations working in Hammersmith & Fulham, and the 3-year programme is only open to prior grantees. For Community Grants, apply by the stated deadline and be prepared to show clear local benefit, realistic budgets, and how funds will support either a specific project, ongoing service, or core costs.
