Middlesbrough Council have once again launched a Carers Community Fund during Carers Week (9-15 June 2025)
This grants scheme is available to community-based groups who want to support informal carers in their area. The programme is for small grants, from £20 to £5000.
Outcomes for your project should help with one or more of the following:
- Reduce carers' social isolation and develop social networks
- Help carers, families and communities to achieve and maintain wellbeing
- Reach, connect, and support disadvantaged carers.
- Build on available community assets and resources to support carers
Successful projects will have high involvement and ownership by the carers within the community, and be driven by them.
Please read the Carers Community Fund guidance(PDF, 134 kB) before you apply.
