Local Community Spaces Fund

Local Community Spaces funding is to support community groups throughout the UK who provide a safe space for people to meet and be together.

We know accessible community spaces can be a lifeline for local people, and many of these spaces require funding to repair, renovate and develop them so that they can continue delivering vital activities and services. In addition, loneliness and isolation continue to be highlighted through our Community Insight Survey as top areas of concern for local communities throughout the UK.

Through our Local Community Spaces Fund, we will continue playing our part in helping to fund safe and welcoming community spaces that bring people together, connect communities and address loneliness and isolation. We have invested over £3 million in community hubs since 2022, and for 2026, will commit over £1 million in grant funding support.

*Applications may close earlier if demand is high or if specific regions become oversubscribed. Any changes to this programme will be announced on the Asda Foundation website, social media accounts, and grant management system. We aim for a fair spread of applications across the UK. Where multiple applications come from the same area, we will select projects that best meet the programme’s funding priorities and objectives. We reserve the right to reduce application values or remove items that don’t meet criteria or align with programme objectives.
