One Community Foundation Limited appears to be a place-based community funder focused on strengthening grassroots activity in Dewsbury Moor and the wider Kirklees area. Its giving supports practical needs that help local organisations operate and serve residents — from sports equipment and safety gear to venue setup, utilities, and capacity-building for community spaces like the Hive Community Café. The funder seems especially interested in small, local organisations delivering visible community benefit through youth, sport, wellbeing, and neighborhood infrastructure.
Local, invite-only grants and in-kind support tied to a specific community fund; likely small, practical awards or facilitated support for defined neighborhood projects rather than open, broad-based grantmaking.
This appears to be an invite-only local fund, so unsolicited applications may not be accepted. The best approach is to connect with the foundation’s local contact (Jason Taylor) and demonstrate clear benefit to Dewsbury Moor/Kirklees residents, with a practical budget focused on equipment, facilities, or capacity-building needs.
