Tees Million
What is the Tees Million?
Grants of up to £2500 are available all year round; applicant groups do not need to be registered charities, providing there is an appropriate constitution or governing document in place and groups can demonstrate they can comply with all relevant safeguarding requirements for activities being funded.
Teesside has so many wonderful and often essential community projects, charities and groups that all share a common purpose; to improve the lives of the people who live here.
Our funds help to reach individuals or communities that might not otherwise be reached; they help to support groups during tough times, such as the pandemic and the cost-of-living crisis and in some cases, it can be the difference between a much-loved and needed small group existing and not.
We’ve been managing and distributing the kindness and generosity of local people and businesses here for more than 35 years, and our community project grant funding creates significant opportunities for charities and groups to further their purpose and make a difference.
