Support & funding

Our approach

We strive for best practice in our grant making and welcome feedback from grantees and applicants so we can improve our impact in Hornsey. We do this by making grants to individuals living within the area of benefit  (refer to map at  the end of this page) or grants to organisations who are based within the area of benefit or whose projects benefit people living or being educated within the area of benefit.
