Groundwork worked with a range of partners to deliver the Community Business Bright Ideas Fund, a £5 million programme that offered community groups grants of up to £15,000 to develop their budding community business ideas.

The fund was jointly funded by Power to Change and the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities and was delivered by Groundwork UK alongside Co-operatives UK, Plunkett Foundation and Locality.

Over the course of the six year programme, 255 grants awarded with £2.9m distributed to community groups across the UK.
