The Department for Communities and Local Government is offering grants of up to £20,000 to voluntary sector organisations for local community engagement projects that empower women. The Women’s Empowerment Fund is directed particularly at organisations who demonstrate they can work with women who find it difficult to get their voices heard, including: those who are or can be marginalised; women from Black, Asian, and minority ethnic groups; are disadvantaged or deprived with no or little educational attainment or restricted opportunities; who may have been victims of domestic or sexual abuse; and suffer from barriers that inhibit the accessing of day-to-day services. The closing date for applications is 31st March. More details at:
