36 Local Groups Awarded Funding to Support Bolton Residents
AUGUST 2025
Bolton CVS is pleased to share that 36 local voluntary, community and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations have been awarded grants through the latest round of Bolton’s Fund: Household Support Fund (HSF 7). A total of £500,000 has been allocated.
The grants will help groups across Bolton provide extra support to people who are struggling with the cost of living. Funded projects include supplying food and essential items such as school uniforms and utility top up vouchers, offering warm spaces and social activities, and providing money advice and wellbeing support.
Bolton’s Fund brings together funding and resources to strengthen communities and tackle the issues that matter most. Thanks to this support, organisations can continue to help children, older people and families across the borough.
Bolton CVS would like to thank everyone who applied, and all the partners involved in making this possible.
