Do you have a local community asset but don’t know what it could be turned
into? Or a community business idea that you don’t know how to get off the
ground? If you are a community group or organisation who would like to set
up a community business but need a bit of support, then this fund is for
you.

The £1.85 million Community Business Bright Ideas Fund will offer around 80
community groups, who work in England, with up to 15 days of tailored
support and grants of up to £20,000 to develop their budding community
business ideas. Jointly funded by Power to Change and the Department for
Communities and Local Government, the two-year programme will be delivered
by a consortium including Co-operatives UK, Plunkett Foundation and
Groundwork UK, led by Locality.

19 April and a FAQS webinar on 11 April

be additional rounds in September 2017 and February 2018. Have a look at
the guidance in the meantime.
