Eleven charities and not-for-profits have secured funding in the second round, supporting initiatives that enhance economic, social and environmental wellbeing.
Among the biggest beneficiaries is Home-Start in Suffolk, receiving £201,881 over two years to assist families facing challenges like mental health struggles and isolation.

With applications open year-round, organisations supporting communities affected by Sizewell C’s construction can apply for future funding.
