Everything begins with the community at The National Lottery Community Fund (NLCF). Today, the organisation shares its plans to place community agency, power, and control at the core of its funding in England. It is committed to investing at least £3 billion in transformative projects by 2030.

NLCF is dedicated to working alongside communities to help build a fairer, stronger society.

The National Lottery Community Fund (NLCF) is introducing a bold new vision for supporting communities across England. Its funding strategy places community agency, power, and control at the core. The organisation plans to distribute at least £3 billion in life-changing funds by 2030.

Beginning in spring 2025, NLCF will implement changes across all its funding in England. These plans reflect the feedback from communities and third-sector organizations in England and reflect what is important to them.

Currently, NLCF is seeking partners for the development phases of three new initiatives:

  • Community Power Fund
  • You Decide funding
  • Grant Holder Support

These initiatives will focus on amplifying community voices and strengthening resilience for both communities and the organizations that support them. The aim is to empower communities to influence critical decisions affecting them and to actively participate in directing funds and support where they are most needed.
