Funding Opportunity to raise Cancer Awareness and Improve Outcomes 

Last year, through the Lancashire and South Cumbria Cancer Alliance VCFSE Cancer Awareness Grants Scheme, we supported 18 fantastic local organisations funded by the Cancer Alliance to deliver community-led projects that raised awareness, encouraged screening, and helped people seek assistance sooner. Collectively, these initiatives reached over 313,000 individuals and made a significant impact across the region. 

Spring North is excited to again partner with the Cancer Alliance again to deliver a new round of grant funding. 

Parkinson’s UK has launched a new physical activity grants programme for marginalised communities across the UK to help more people living with the condition to get active.


The pilot grants programme will run from Monday 2 June to Sunday 10 August 2025. It will run in conjunction with the charity's established physical activity grants programme, which has been delivering funding of up to £3,000 for exercise professionals and local Parkinson’s groups since 2021. In that time, more than £700,000 has been delivered and more than 200 physical activity projects have benefitted from the funding.

Grants of up to £3,000 will be available for local groups, exercise coaches and activity providers.

​The Lancashire Partnership Against Crime (LANPAC) is here to help bring your ideas to life. Working in partnership with your local policing team, LANPAC provides funding for projects that support crime prevention and community safety priorities. 

Happy World Environment Day! 🌍
 
The climate and nature emergency affects us all, but local action can make a real difference. We want to encourage as many people as possible to get involved in projects that help the planet.  Today we are announcing a programme through our Awards for All funding that will fund community-led projects that improve the environment and help people connect with and enjoy nature where they live.
