Sheffield City Council is a place-based public funder focused on improving residents’ health, wellbeing, and resilience while reducing poverty and isolation across the city. Its grants primarily support voluntary, community, faith and social enterprise organisations that deliver practical services such as community meals, social connection, advice, and preventative wellbeing support. A distinctive feature of its giving is the strong emphasis on invited local partners and programmes tailored to specific population needs, including minority-led groups, older adults, children eligible for free school meals, and men’s mental wellbeing.

Primarily invite-only, local place-based grants with a mix of small awards, programme-specific funding, and multi-year core support for trusted Sheffield partners. Funding often supports delivery costs, essential overheads, or targeted community programmes rather than open, competitive philanthropy.
Most programmes are invite-only, so organisations should build relationships with Sheffield City Council and relevant local delivery partners rather than expect open calls. Eligible applicants are typically Sheffield-based VCFSE organisations working with priority communities; proposals should clearly show local reach, preventative impact, and how the work reduces isolation, improves wellbeing, or addresses poverty.
