Thank you to the funders and partners who make our work possible.
As an independent charity, we depend on funding to keep our doors open year in, year out. Here are successful funding bids we have secured. Bids take a long time to put together and maintain — it is a never-ending process of applying and monitoring — but without this vital work, we would not be here.
We want to thank all our funders for their continued support, and the trust they put in Park Farm Community Centre to deliver projects for our community.
In December 2023 , the ASDA Foundation awarded us funding for a Christmas Day meal for the second year running. This initiative aims to provide a festive meal for up to 25 people who may be alone or without plans during this special time of year.
In October 2023 , We were awarded £2,100 to deliver activities over the October half-term and Halloween weekend to ensure children and young people living in and around Carr Mill, Clinkham Wood and Moss Bank were actively engaged within a safe and fun setting.”
In October 2023 , the UK Shared Prosperity Fund awarded us £3,310. This funding will enable us to purchase a suite of new laptops, and a storage unit. The goal of the project will be to improve access to digital facilities in the area.
In July 2023 , The Rainford Trust awarded us £5,000 to help support with 12-months of staffing costs for our primary school pickup service.
From September , Foyle Foundation granted our charity £10,000 to sustain our Community Engagement work from September 2023, for a further twelve months. This will ensure our projects are responsive, well-informed and delivered according to the needs of the local community.
In April 2023 , Our project to purchase new resources for our primary school pickup service went to public vote between April 23 and June 23. In the end we were awarded £500 by Tesco Community Grant to help towards these costs! Thank you so much to everybody who nominated us.
In July 2023 , Torus Foundation awarded us £500 towards social activity groups. This will ensure that adults and older people can continue attending centre-based activities where they will reduce social isolation, meet new friends and be more involved in their community.
In July 2023 , The Skelton Charity – which gave us a grant before – awarded us £812.50 for resources for Park Farm Pickup. This will ensure that wrap around childcare services are better equipped, resourced and organised with more creative and engaging opportunities for children attending sessions.

In March 2023 , The Albert Hunt Trust contributed funds towards our Community Engagement role who helps to organise activities, engages with local residents, groups and organisations. This ensures that our programme is need led and responsive to the community.
