Dorset Reclaim, a charity which provides low income families with access to affordable furniture and white goods, has received a £20,000 grant from the Talbot Village Trust COVID-19 Support Fund.
Businesses in Bournemouth, Poole and Christchurch can still apply to BCP Council for grants – but they are going to have to be quick as the deadline is Thursday 27 August.
In just 10 weeks, Dorset Community Foundation has awarded half a million pounds in 188 grants to local groups and charities addressing needs caused by the coronavirus emergency.
The Dorset Police and Crime Commissioner, Martyn Underhill, has launched a new funding scheme to support charities affected by the Covid-19 health crisis.
