How it works

There are 3 stages:

  1. Who would you like to support
  2. Where would you like your donation to make a difference
  3. How much would you like to give?

For ease we have grouped issues as themes focusing on different needs:

  1. Children and Young People: Helping children and young people to be safe, healthy, providing them with a positive outlook for the future and helping them to make a positive contribution.

  2. Safer and Stronger Communities: Helping to reduce crime, build respect in communities through activities and projects, clean up local areas and generally improve quality of life and empower local people to make a difference.

  3. Health and wellbeing: Improve the health of individuals and support people with long term illness and disabilities.

  4. Older People: Support older people through local activities, combat isolation and fear and link them into local life.

  5. Increasing opportunities: Provide training opportunities for individuals and grass roots groups to give them greater hope and aspirations for the future.  Increase self esteem and help people to make their activities sustainable.

  6. Covering Core Costs: The biggest issue for all community groups is covering their core costs/overheads. All community and voluntary groups struggle because they are not-for-profit groups even though they provide an invaluable service to our local communities. We should all do whatever we can to ensure their work continues.

  7. General Donation: A donation to support the on-going work of Nottinghamshire Community Foundation, we too are a not-for-profit, independent charity.
