Arnold Clark’s Winter 2022 Awards programme aims to help UK charities and community organisations that have been impacted by COVID-19. Small grants of £1,000 are available to help eligible charitable organisations continue work which may have been placed at risk during COVID.

The funder is only accepting applications from UK organisations that deal with or address the following:

o Food banks.
o Housing and accommodation.
o Poverty relief, and
o Toy banks.

Organisations whose activities fall outside of the above categories are invited to visit Arnold Clark’s Community page to see if any of its other programmes may be suitable (Arnold Clark is planning to open the Community Fund up to a wider range of categories at the beginning of 2022).

Grants of £1,000 are awarded by way of a weekly random draw during the funder’s weekly campaign. Applicants that are not awarded a grant are kept in the draw for the following week.

Further information, guidance, an eligibility checker and a short online application form is available on the Arnold Clark website.

The deadline for applications is 23:59 on Friday 31 December 2021.
