The Tesco Charity Trust has announced that it will once again be seeking applications through its Community Awards programme in early 2010. The Tesco Charity Trust Community Awards Scheme provides one-off donations of between £500 and £4,000. The funding it gives goes towards providing practical benefits, such as equipment and resources for projects that directly benefit children, the elderly and adults and children with disabilities, living in the local communities around our stores in the UK.

There are two categories of Community Awards – grants to support children’s welfare and/or children’s educations (including special needs schools) and grants to support elderly people and/or adults and children with disabilities. Previous projects supported have included: sensory garden or room projects; outdoor classrooms; breakfast and after school clubs; holiday play-schemes; and part funding to purchase minibuses.

The grants programme for children’s welfare will open for applications will open from 1 December to 31 January 2010. The grants programme for elderly people and/or adults and children with disabilities will open from 1 February to 31 March 2010.
