Introducing the CSLR Trust
The CSLR Trust is a new fund supporting local community groups and organisations. A series of one-off grants are available to empower projects aligned with our core values.
In everything we do we aim to be:
- compassionate
- innovative
- empowering
- ambitious
- collaborative
Who can apply
Initially, grants would be match funded between the CSLR Trust and your organisation, anywhere between £100 and £1,000. However, get in touch if you have more ambitious or innovative ideas.
We’re looking to support groups and organisations:
- based or working in and around Carlisle
- established before 2025
- willing to match our funding (for example £750 from your group = £750 from us)
