Access Support Fund

The Access Support Fund provides grants of up to £300 to help not-for-profit groups in Buckinghamshire overcome barriers when applying for funding from Heart of Bucks Community Foundation. The fund specifically supports groups facing challenges with reading, language, vision, sensory processing, disability, or difficulties with online applications. This funding can be used to pay for support services such as someone to enter the application into online or paper forms, interpreters for other languages or British Sign Language, or support workers to assist with screen readers or manage sensory overload. The goal is to ensure that there are as few barriers as possible for groups seeking to access funding from Heart of Bucks. Applications are not accepted from fundraising consultants, groups working outside Buckinghamshire Council area, for-profit organizations, or for specialist equipment purchases.
