Did you know there’s a local charity dedicated to helping small community groups, village halls, and charities thrive across Hampshire?
Action Hampshire has been empowering local communities for over 70 years. Whether you're running a village hall, starting a community project, or managing a small charity, they offer practical support to help you succeed.
From governance and training to grants and advice, Action Hampshire provides tailored guidance to help your group grow. They run workshops and events to build skills and connect with others doing similar work. They offer specialist help for community buildings, including funding, networking opportunities, and best practice guides.
Action Hampshire works on behalf of all local charities to represent the sector’s needs to local authorities and funders. Their regular e-newsletter contains useful updates and links to new funding opportunities as well as details about new project funds they are delivering. Their projects focus on tackling health inequalities, organisational development, poverty and cost of living, community led research, and rural affordable housing.
They are currently inviting applications for several community-focused projects, including funding opportunities for initiatives such as ‘Healthwatch Hampshire Engagement’, ‘Safe and Warm Communities’, and ‘Let’s Be Smoke Free’.
