B&Q help charities who are supporting people in need in the UK – those experiencing homelessness, in financial hardship, impacted by health, disability, or other
disadvantage or distress.
They believe that everyone needs a place to feel at home. So, they are looking to fund projects that decorate, renovate, or create spaces where people can feel at home
and have a sense of belonging. This can be both indoor and outdoor.
Grants available are:
