About this grant

The Winter Warmth Fund is a grant programme administered by Cumbria Community Foundation aimed at helping people in Cumbria stay warm and safe during winter. Cumbria, while known for its beautiful landscape, faces significant hidden poverty and lack of opportunity, and the fund is designed to address the hardship that cold weather brings to vulnerable residents. The programme supports local community organisations and projects that help individuals and families cope with the challenges of winter, including heating costs and related welfare needs. It forms part of Cumbria Community Foundation's broader mission to tackle poverty and disadvantage and strengthen local communities across the county.
