Celebrating Communities grant support: frequently asked questions

Birmingham City Council has made £2m of grant funding available to support Birmingham community and voluntary groups to celebrate the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games. You can read about the Celebrating Communities fund here. 

We’re pleased to be working with Locality and the council’s Neighbourhood Development Support Unit (NDSU) to support Birmingham groups that wish to apply for a Celebrating Communities grant.

We have been delivering a grant briefing session on multiple dates to explain the application process and share details of support available to strengthen your application. Learn more on our Celebrating Communities page. You can get the slides from the session there, and lots more information.

We have addressed all previous FAQs in an extensive grant guidance document, which you should read before applying:
