Funding for Grassroots Groups to Address Racial and Social Injustices

Edge Fund is offering grants of £1,000 to support grassroots communities and campaign groups working to create long-term change in society by addressing the causes of injustice and inequality.

In the current Roots Funding round, a total of £50,000 is available for grassroots groups with an annual income of less than £5,000 working to address Islamophobia, Afriphobia, racial injustice, and the legacies of British colonialism in the UK and Ireland. 

Priority will be given to:

  • Work with the primary objective of creating long-term change in society by addressing the causes of injustice and inequality.
  • Addressing issues facing a particular community and groups that are led by that community.
  • Small groups with a small annual income that struggle to get funding elsewhere, particularly if other funders might consider them to be too radical. 

In this round, the fund will only receive 100 applications and will close early if this amount is reached before the deadline.

Applications will be accepted between 15 October 2025 and 2 November 2025.
