Grants and Sponsorships

We provide a number of funding opportunities to support initiatives that contribute to the social, cultural, environmental, and economic life of the city.

Some of our grants and sponsorship opportunities have been updated to make it simpler to apply, and fairer to everyone in the community. They also align with our plan for the future, Newcastle 2030 Community Strategic Plan.

Funding opportunities open on 3 May and close 31 May 2021.

We are holding online workshops to outline the application process and address any questions that you might have.
