Grassroots Supports
mother and toddler groups; after school groups; youth clubs; self help groups for people with mental and physical health issues; projects working with the learning or physically disabled; social and cultural groups; community sports groups; activity groups for older people; support groups for people from ethnic and other minorities; groups run by local people who want to tackle local issues. The list is endless but the common theme is that most of these groups are led by volunteers.
Grassroots Grants is a grant scheme funded by the Government Office for the Third Sector and run locally in Portsmouth by Community First for Portsmouth in partnership with the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Community Foundation.
