To support Creative, Confident Communities, we offer social investment to organisations working to ensure local economies work better for the people who live there. We developed Partner in Place to offer social investment that is place-led and takes a partnership approach. Through this work, we have three impact goals:
- Communities use their power to make change happen
- Local economies work better for the people who live there
- Culture and creativity build thriving communities
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
We commit to investing into organisations led by communities experiencing racial inequity, as well as building community wealth. We are particularly interested in supporting work that also contributes to our other aims and priorities.
Climate change
Across all our aims, we are keen to support work which addresses the causes and impacts of climate change.

We want to support organisations and work delivering impact in line with our priorities:
There are also specific opportunities we are proactively exploring:
- Community enterprise: community-driven small and medium-sized enterprises that support stronger, sustainable connections between people and their local resources with the aim of supporting better outcomes for local people.
- Regeneration: projects (including capital projects) that take a localised, community-led approach to rebuild creative, collaborative, thriving local economies for all.
- Green economy for all: regenerative enterprises working towards a green recovery, clean energy and access to nature in economic development.
