York CRF Community Grant Programme For Organisations
The York Crisis and Resilience Fund (CRF) has been made available to local authorities in England to support low-income households who encounter a financial shock, and to support activity that builds individual and community financial resilience to enable individuals and communities to better deal with crises in the long-term, reducing crisis need. This funding covers the period from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2029 inclusive.
The York CRF Community Grant Programme will support ‘Resilience Services’ that contribute towards improving the financial resilience of individuals. Financial resilience refers to the ability of individuals to withstand and recover from financial shocks, such as sudden income loss or unexpected expenses. The purpose of building financial resilience is to enable individuals to better manage future financial shocks and reduce the need for crisis support.
We're looking to grant fund Community and Voluntary Sector (VCS) organisations who can provide services that support the objectives of the CRF.
The initial grant programme for organisations has now closed.
If you have any innovative ideas about futher provision or support for residents to deliver the aims of the CRF, you can contact us for an informal conversation to look at how we may be able to work together.
