The station's listeners are responsible for raising a large proportion of the charity's funds, while Capital FM co-ordinates fundraising activities. The charity boasts Lord Attenborough as a life patron, and has recently undergone rebranding to help promote its work across the city.
How much is on offer? Annually, the small grants programme distributes £750,000. The maximum any organisation can request is £3,000.
What will it fund? It will fund seven types of organisation. These are community groups, language and literacy projects, playgroups and toy libraries, refuge and homeless projects, social and leisure groups, special needs and health projects and youth clubs or projects. These groups facilitate sports, music, drama and cultural activities among others. But it will not fund hospital equipment, treatments or medical research.
