Community fund launch

Apply for the Norfolk & Suffolk Community Fund

As part of a shared commitment to ensuring tourism delivers positive impacts for local people and places, the Suffolk and Norfolk LVEP, in partnership with holidaycottages.co.uk, is inviting charities and community organisations across Norfolk and Suffolk to apply for the Norfolk & Suffolk Community Fund.

Six grants of £1,000 are available to support projects that strengthen communities, enhance local environments, and help regenerate places across the region—contributing to a more sustainable, resilient and vibrant visitor economy.

We welcome applications from organisations whose work helps make Norfolk and Suffolk exceptional places to live, work and visit – from community-led initiatives and cultural projects to environmental and place-based improvements.

Applications open on Monday 13 April 2026 and close on Monday 25 May 2026.
