Fryer Grassroots Fund

The Fryer Grassroots Fund provides grants to voluntary and community groups and organisations to continue supporting people with disabilities who live in Cumbria. The fund is provided by an anonymous donor and prioritizes small, volunteer-led grassroots groups that support their local community and work with individuals who have disabilities. Priority is given to projects which support individuals with physical disabilities, learning disabilities, sensory disabilities, and help people in fulfilling their potential. The fund also supports priority individuals to attend courses run by The Lake District Calvert Trust, including bursaries to attend these courses. This is a community-focused grant program aimed at strengthening support services for disabled residents across Cumbria through grassroots organizations.
