National Lottery Awards for All offers funding to support what matters to people and communities. The programme is a partnership between the National Lottery Community Fund Scotland, sportscotland and Creative Scotland. It has three funding priorities: bringing people together and building strong relationships in and across communities; improving the places and spaces that matter to communities; enabling more people to fulfil their potential by working to address issues at the earliest possible stage. If you are applying for a project involving the arts, they will prioritise projects that: engage people from areas of high deprivation; remove financial barriers to access creative activities; address rural isolation and encourage activity in rural areas; engage older people, people in care homes and carers; engage care leavers; support integration of refugees and asylum seekers. If you are applying for a project focused on sport, they will prioritise projects that: engage young people from our most deprived areas; engage girls and young women; engage disabled young people. The National Lottery Community Fund is the new name for the Big Lottery.

The Foundation supports a wide range of charities, mostly in Scotland, and principally working in the fields of medical facilities and research, the relief of poverty and assistance to the aged and infirm, education and learning, encouragement of personal development and training of young people and the provision of better opportunities for the less privileged and the vulnerable and the encouragement of music and the arts. They also fund under the headings conservation and environment, disadvantaged and disabled, elderly, homeless and hospices, music, theatre and visual arts, religion and youth.

The Foundation supports a broad range of organisations and activities that share a commitment to making a positive impact to the lives of the communities in which they work, and that are driven by a desire to achieve excellence. They make grants across the UK to organisations in the following categories: Arts; Education; Youth; Health; Community; Museums and Heritage; Environment; Religion and Welfare.

Small grants of up to £500 are available to local community organisations in Scotland that make a vital difference to their local area.

The Glasgow Chapter of the Awesome Foundation gives £500, no-strings-attached mini-grants to cool projects that will make the world, and Glasgow, more Awesome! There are only four criteria: the project must be local (Glasgow); you need to have a budget; it has to benefit the local community; most of all, it has to be Awesome.

The Foundation aims to make a positive difference to people living in England, Scotland and Wales with special consideration for vulnerable and disadvantaged groups. Donations are made in two ways: by match funding the money raised by Morrison's colleagues for charities (match funding programme - up to £1000 per request); and by awarding grants to charities which help improve peoples lives. The principle funding sources are the sale of plastic carrier bags and a proportion of income from clothing banks, Morrison's Charity Scratch cards and car park fines.

Previous grant recipients have included Butterfly Conservation Trust, Scottish Ballet, Teapot Trust, Freedom from Torture, National Museums Scotland, Edinburgh World Heritage.

The Wiseman Family Charitable Trust will support charities, non-profit organisations and individuals. The trustees can employ full discretion to support all manner of charitable activities.
