The Wyre Community Cohesion Fund is a fund established to build community relationships and social trust and to promote cohesion between communities.
Launching on 18th May 2026, applications will be open for an 8-week period, closing at midnight on Monday 13th July 2026.

Cohesive communities are places that:
- offer a common vision and a sense of belonging for all
- positively value diversity
- provide equal opportunities to people from different backgrounds and
- provide an environment where strong and positive relationships can be developed between people from different backgrounds.
Applications are welcome from local organisations within the VCFSE sector based in or delivering work in Wyre. Projects should align with one or more of the following themes:
- A focus on creating community cohesion and a sense of togetherness
- Improving local partnership approaches to supporting community resilience by funding projects that strengthen social capital.
- Initiatives that strengthen community connections, promote unity and shared values.
