Tesco Community Grants

Tesco Community Grants support thousands of local community projects and good causes across the UK.

The scheme is open to all registered charities and not-for-profit organisations, with priority given to projects that provide food and support to young people.

Examples of eligible applications with a focus on food security, children and young people could be:

  • A local school needing support to buy food for a children’s breakfast club,

  • A voluntary organisation working with families to run a food bank,

  • A charity supporting young people with specialist advice to manage mental health,

  • A brownie or scout group needing new camping equipment,

  • Kitchen equipment for a youth project to set up a holiday club,

  • Supporting a community centre wanting to put on a Christmas lunch or Meals on Wheels service,

  • A healthy eating project that supports families to cook healthy meals on a budget,

  • A local friends of a park group wanting to develop a new toddler area.

If you are a Tesco customer or colleague, you can also nominate a cause that you’d like to see supported and we’ll contact them to encourage them to apply.

Tesco colleagues in each store will help select those needing a little help in your local area and when our customers are given a blue token, in any of our Tesco stores at the checkout, they can vote for their favourite charity to receive a grant.
