Greggs Foundation

The Greggs Foundation works to strengthen communities by expanding opportunities, increasing support networks and reducing the immediate impact of poverty through responsive, forward-thinking grant programmes that meet the real needs of people across the UK. We distribute around £5 million per year to charitable organisations throughout England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Through our Feeding Brighter Futures programme we support in excess of schools to offer equal access to opportunities for children to attend a breakfast club, after school club, holiday club or school trips. The Community Action Fund is our community programme that helps a network of local organisations committed to solving the different challenges facing communities. We offer grant funding of up to per year for up to three years to support action by UK organisations tackling clear local needs - such as overcoming social isolation, building community connections, improving health and wellbeing, or alleviating food poverty. We also offer a small grants programme. The Relief Grant helps individuals and families through periods of unexpected difficulty, providing help to ease financial strain and restore hope when it’s needed most.
