Funding application form

Use this online application form to apply for the Derwent London Community Fund West 2026. £50,000 has already been committed to community groups that were awarded multi-year funding in 2025 for the years 2025, 2026 and 2027. This means that £25,000 is available in 2026 for projects that will run for no more than a year.
