BIG is an outcomes funder, meaning that our focus is on the difference our funding makes, rather than on the organisations that receive the funding.
We can make grants to organisations in the public and private sectors, and the third sector. However, we recognise the vital role that the third sector has in helping us achieve those outcomes and 92% of our funding supports this sector.
We know that the sector is hugely successful in reaching out to grass roots in communities, engaging people and inspiring confidence where others may find it difficult: the majority of our grants are for under £10,000 to small community groups working within their own communties. We think that a strong and well-resourced third sector is crucial to a healthy and well-functioning society.
We deliver funding programmes across the UK. For more information on available funding please visit our website: www.biglotteryfund.org.uk
