The One Stop Community Partnership provides small grants to local community groups and organisations delivering projects that benefit people in their communities.
Funding is available for organisations working within two miles of a One Stop store and supporting activities such as:
- Tackling food poverty
- Supporting vulnerable people
- Supporting older people
- Supporting low-income families

Food banks cannot apply for funding to purchase food, but can apply for equipment such as fridges, freezers and storage units.
