Groundwork is working with One Stop stores to administer the Carriers for Causes grants initiative, to fund good causes within two miles of a One Stop shop. 

Grants of up to £1,000 are available.

The types of projects funded will be very broad and will cover the direct costs needed to deliver the project. Examples of project costs include:

• Buying litter pickers and bags for a community cleanup days.
• Plants, spades and forks to plant up a new community garden.
• The cost of a minibus for a day trip for a community group.
• Materials needed to paint a room at the local hospice.
